Electric current can flow through a continuous path which can also  be described as a closed circuit. Conversely, any break or opening  in a circuit is called an open circuiâ¦t. Charges can only flow  through a closed circuit.
Electric circuits. An electric current will not flow if we do not have a power source (a cell, battery or power pack). It also won't flow if the circuit is not complete. One end of the power source must be joined to the other end by the wires and components of the circuit. The simplest complete circuit is a piece of wire from one end of a battery to the other. An electric current can flow in the wire from one end of the battery to the other, but nothing useful happens. The wire just gets hot and the battery goes flat.
