Write a short note on short circuiting?

Short-circuiting- It occurs when the plastic insulation of live and neutral wires gets torn somehow and touches each other, then due to this direct touching (connection) of the two wires an electric short circuit occurs.  In this case, the resistance of the circuit so formed is very small and therefore, the current flowing through the wires increases heavily.
