overloaded curcuits are when gou have to many items running at one time (to much power on one cicuit) to prevent it simply turn some of the items on the circuit off or change a fuse to one that can handle the load if the power is to much the circuit breaker will open cutting off the power.

An overloaded circuit is when you have too much power on a line. You need extra lines to separate the load and preventing having too much power on one.
