what does bypassing a circuit with a wire mean?

156 viewsEngineeringOther

So context, I’m a maintenance engineer in training and I’ve been looking up tool that will be handy for various jobs etc. One common suggestion is a piece of wire to bypass a circuit.

What does this mean? I’d ask my supervisor but I’m not sure whether that’s something we would do.

The circuit would be a wire of its own essentially, bypassing it would mean exactly what it sounds like, you hook up a different wire in place of that circuit. It begins/ends at or near the same place the bypassed circuit would.
