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.
In switch language, open means to disconnect, or break the circuit. Some people call this turned off. Closed, is to connect, or make the circuit. Some people call this turne â¦ d on. In the case of a normally open switch, the switch is open (off) unless something takes action on the switch. Pushes a button for example, or holds a magnet near the switch, or other active force. A normally closed switch is closed (on) unless some force causes the switch to be opened.
