* Short-circuiting and shorting accident
Short-circuiting refers to the direct connection between the positive and negative poles of electricity. This may occur when a stripped cord (electric wiring) comes in
contact with another cord or metallic part of vehicle. Short-circuiting may produce spark, which may be caught by surrounding objects and result in fire hazard.

About bolting torque
Black/Gray
"The power to twist something" is called "torque."
Two persons grip each end of one bat, and twist in opposite direction, respectively. In this case, the person with the
thick bat side is more advantageous.

Thus, even if using the same force, turning something with a large radius will have larger twisting strength, or torque.
