Default Re: Spark at Battery is it a short?

So there is a amp draw. But why is that different then connecting two leads or a +/-, most times you get a spark off connecting poles directly? Most welders work on this principle.


Just don't think every time you disconnect a battery and it sparks its a positive indicator of a short... lead disruption is a disconnection of power (short).


On a system that has many components. shorts certainty is only known from a meter if there is draw. Not from a spark only... or not.
