Question

_____________ is an excessive current relative to normal operating current, but one that is confined to the normal conductive path provided by the conductors, circuit components, and loads of the distribution system. A(n) _________ is a current that flows outside the normal conducting path. One generally accepted definition of _______is when a phase or ungrounded conductor comes in contact with, or arcing current flows between, another phase conductor, neutral, or ground.

Answer 1

Overload current, short-circuit current and short circuit

Step-by-step explanation:

Overload current is an excessive current relative to normal operating current, but one that is confined to the normal conductive path provided by the conductors, circuit components, and loads of the distribution system.

A short-circuit current is a current that flows outside the normal conducting path.

One generally accepted definition of short circuit is when a phase or ungrounded conductor comes in contact with, or arcing current flows between, another phase conductor, neutral, or ground.
