Definition: Overcurrent is a condition in an electrical circuit when the current (amperage) in the circuit exceeds the rated amperage capacity of that circuit or of the connected equipment on that circuit. Overcurrent may be caused by a short circuit, loose connection, ground fault or surge power draw when a motor starts up.

Overcurrent protection is a term given to circuit breakers or fuses and sometimes GFCI outlets.
Also Known As: short, short circuit

overvoltage


Explanation:
Según la definición de la IEC:

over-voltage
over-tension
voltage the value of which exceeds a specified limiting value

Es la primera vez que veo "tension" en inglés como sinónimo de "voltage": De todas maneras, viene en segundo lugar, por tanto la "preferred version" es "voltage"
