To test for resistance in a circuit, the circuit should be de-energized.
Deadman or failsafe switches. Think of them as an and gate logic circuit...all switches must be on (1) in order to power the load (1).
Sure. If you want sound when the circuit is energized, use a buzzer. If you want a visual indication when the circuit is energized, use an LED.
Testing of an electrical circuit for voltage requires the supply to be energized.
If the test shows that there is a continuity between the phase leg and the neutral with no load connected, then that circuit should not be energized. If the circuit was energized then the fuse or breaker protecting that leg will trip the circuit open.
true

No, once the switch is turned off the circuit is de energized. A de energized circuit can not be shorted out to create a fault.
This circuit needed to have a fuse installed before the circuit was energized. Now the circuit is going to need new wiring along with a fuse before the system is re energized.
A completed electrical circuit provides a current path for electron flow. Circuits that are complete (have completed electrical connections) will "power up" and do what they are supposed to do when energized. An on/off switch completes or breaks an electrical circuit allowing it to be energized or de-energized.

Switches are used to isolate the supply voltage from the connected load. This isolation is needed to be able to work on equipment in the de-energized state. Without the switch in the circuit this could not be accomplished.
To open and close the circuit.
