parallel
The condition you are looking for is a short circuit.
An electric circuit.
It is called a series circuit.
Because there is only a single path in series circuit and many paths in parallel circuit.
electric current
The electrical current for a home device travels in a circuit.
The path that a lightning bolt travels through is called a lightning channel. Lightning channels can be several miles long and are formed when an electrical breakdown of air creates an ionized path for the current to flow through.
chemical energy
The map that shows the path of current flow is called an electrical circuit diagram or schematic diagram. It displays how electrical components are interconnected and the direction of the current flowing through them.
A controlled and linear path of current is an electrical circuit. A complete circuit has a beginning and terminus for the flow of charge.
At the speed of light- about 186,000 miles per second.
parallel
By Pass would be to reroute the path of travel for current.
A closed path through which a current can flow is called a circuit. Electric Circuit:)
Ressistance, A ressistance causes reduction and limitation in the path of current.
Potential Source connected across a Closed Circuit Path.
