Option 1 : Dead

The dead short circuit is the most dangerous of all short circuits.

This is because:

A dead short is an electrical circuit that results in current flowing along an unintended path with no resistance or impedance.
This results in an excessive current flowing through the circuit, which can damage equipment or cause electrical shocks to those nearby.
A dead short is difficult to track and diagnose as the current builds rapidly and trips the breaker immediately.
It is mainly caused due to direct connection between positive and negative power wires or a direct connection between the positive wire and the ground.

Ground fault:

The ground fault occurs in the power system when the hot wire (live wire) is accidentally connected with the earth wire or grounded equipment frame.
In this condition, the frame of equipment energies with dangerous voltage.
