Spanish term

puenteando con

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Energy / Power Generation solar panels
I am having trouble with the following phrase from a maintenance manual for solar panels:

Thanks in advance.

Thanks Liz. I know puentear is bypass, but I'm having trouble with the whole phrase. "Create a short-circuit by bypassing the corresponding terminals with a conductor that is adequate for Isc." Does that make any sense at all? Thanks again.

trying to jump damaged batteries can be extremely dangerous with a risk of explosion...
