Definitions:

Overcurrent

A condition where the current exceeds the rated current of equipment or the capacity of conductors, potentially causing damage or hazard.

Low Intensity

Describes a relatively weak level of power, brightness, or energy output, often used in the context of lights or signals.

Fault Current

The excessive electrical current that flows through a circuit during a fault condition.

Short-Circuits

Electrical connections that unintentionally direct current along an unintended path, often resulting in excessive current flow.
