The definition of an open circuit is  a broken path for an electrical current due to an open switch or frayed wire. An example of an open circuit is a string of electric lights that donât work if one bulb goes out.
The circuit is called 'closed' when the current flows in the circuit, and when the current does not flow, it is called an 'open circuit'. The switch or key helps to make or break the circuit, i.e. switches on or switches off the current. Sub Topics. 1  Components of An Electric Circuit.  Series and Parallel Circuits.
