Leaky Electricity

a: Short circuit ~
b: a water pipe with a hole in it

What: "It's like having a water pipe with a valve closed. A short circuit is like having a water pipe with a hole in it, except with electricity, the leaking wire has to touch something that conducts electricity and is connected to a return path. Water will just go anywhere."

Useful?
