What is the Difference between Open and Short Circuit ? 
 Both open and short circuits are limits or boundaries for any circuit. 
This is comparison between open and short circuits. Open Circuit is a Highest Resistive (R) , Highest Voltage(V)  and Lowest Ampere  Circuit. Short Circuit is a Lowest Resistance (R), Lowest Voltage and Highest Ampere Circuit. 
Short Circuit: It is Magnetic Circuit. 
Open Circuit: It is Electric Circuit.
Here we need to note it down the significant differences,  that is V and R are Directly proportional to each other; V and I are Inversely proportional to each other; R and I are inversely proportional to each other. 
Note: Any Electric Circuit* can come under These limits (Open and Short Circuit Limits) .
