When a home circuit breaker opens the lights in some rooms go off but the lights in some rooms stay on. Explain why.?
The circuit breakers in a panelboard feed separate circuits. The lights that stay on are on a different circuit than the ones that go off. To fine the circuit that feeds the lights that stay on, go to the panelboard and turn off the breakers one by one until the lights go out. This is the circuit that feeds that circuit of lights. Remember that lights and receptacles can be on the same circuit together.
What is a circuit in which electricity doesn't flow called?
In a lighting circuit an open circuit will turn off the light.
What determines if a circuit is open or closed?
Closed. If it is open then the power is off.
What job does a switch do in a circuit?
It opens and closes a circuit and it makes the bulb turn off and on and it completes a circuit when it is closed.
What is an open circuit fault?
An open circuit is a kind of electric circuit in which the path that the electrons follow cannot be completed because of an open gap that they cannot flow through.An open circuit is a circuit where the load resistance has been removed and replaced with an open, meaning there is no electrical connection between the two sides of the circuit.
Are lights onor off in an open circuit?
If the lights are the load of the circuit, then the lights will be off if the circuit is open.
What is close circuit and an open circuit?
a closed circuit is a complete circuit with no breaks at all, one example:- a closed circuit occurs when you turn the light switch on an open circuit has a physical break in the circuit, which stops the flow of electrons. one example is when the lights are turned off, the switch creates a physical break in the circuit
Electric lights will not come on unless their electrical circuit is a parallel circuit?
No, electric lights come in both parallel and series circuit.
How do you make a circuit so the lights can be turned on and off separatley?
To design a circuit so that lights can be turned on and off separately, we connect the circuit in parallel.

What type of circuit off all lights when you take on bulb out?
If you remove one light from a chain of lights, and the other lights turn off, then it is a 'series' circuit.
Diagram of a closed circuit?
a closed circuit is a complete circuit with no breaks at all, one example:- a closed circuit occurs when you turn the light switch on an open circuit has a physical break in the circuit, which stops the flow of electrons. one example is when the lights are turned off, the switch creates a physical break in the circuit
If the lights in a room are off the circuit is?
Open.
What is a circuit in which electricity doesn't flow called?
In a lighting circuit an open circuit will turn off the light.
A circuit with a switch turned to the Off position or a circuit with any break is called?
a closed circuit
What determines if a circuit is open or closed?
Closed. If it is open then the power is off.
When the switch is closed it means that?
There is a complete path for the electricity to flow. The opposite of an open circuit. If a light switch is on and the light comes on, the circuit is closed. If the switch is turned off, the light goes off because the circuit is open.
