The term Open circuit may refer to:
- Open-circuit voltage, the difference of electrical potential between two terminals of a device when there is no external load connected
- Open-circuit scuba, a type of SCUBA-diving equipment where the user breathes from the set and then exhales to the surroundings without recycling the exhaled air
- Self-contained breathing apparatus, used in open-circuit SCUBA
- An electrical circuit is an "open circuit" if it lacks a complete path between the positive and negative terminals of its power source. Open-circuit voltage or OCV is the difference of electrical potential between two terminals of a device when there is no external load connected i A scuba set is an independent breathing set that provides a scuba diver with the Breathing gas necessary to breathe underwater during Scuba diving. self contained breathing apparatus, or SCBA, sometimes referred to as a Compressed Air Breathing Apparatus (CABA or simply Breathing Apparatus (BA is Open circuits have infinite electrical resistance. Electrical resistance is a ratio of the degree to which an object opposes an Electric current through it measured in Ohms Its reciprocal quantity is
