No, it’s a cable break.

Short circuit is a resistanceless connection of the two poles of a voltage source.

Grounding is a conductive connection of the outer conductor to the ground potential.

Short circuit:
A conclusion between active wires (L1, L2, L3, N)

Earthlock:
Unintentional conductive connection to ground potential

Body closure:
Connection between voltage-carrying parts and the housing of the operating means

Short circuit is if the current can no longer flow or if the line is cut e.g.

No. A short circuit connects conductive (and without consumers) current-carrying lines, which should not be connected.

short circuit is when the current no longer flows

No – the current flows (almost) without resistance/consumer

A grounding is a phase against protective conductors, so earth. A short circuit is a bridge. A part of the circuit is bridged.

A groundbreak is phase against Earth. In this case, the ground around the ground is under current. It is also possible to count an ausenleiter, which hangs in the water.

Phase against protective conductors is also a short circuit. Because no matter whether TN S or TN C S, the protective conductor also goes to the star point of the transformer.
