shortedcoil

A shorted coil is an electrical component that has been intentionally or unintentionally short-circuited, resulting in a low or zero resistance path. This can occur due to various reasons, such as manufacturing defects, physical damage, or improper handling. A shorted coil can be identified by its low resistance reading when measured with an ohmmeter. The short circuit can be caused by the coil's wire being damaged or the coil's core being damaged, which can result in the coil's windings coming into contact with each other or the core. A shorted coil can cause overheating, reduced efficiency, and potential damage to other components in an electrical circuit. It is important to replace a shorted coil as soon as possible to prevent further damage and ensure the proper functioning of the electrical system.
