Which action triggers 'sympathetic tripping' within parallel electrical distribution circuits?

A)Overcurrent on a healthy feeder
B)Transformer core saturation
C)Breaker mechanical failure
D)Voltage instability in local loads

💡 Explanation

Sympathetic tripping occurs because increased current on one feeder elevates the common bus voltage, triggering voltage-based relays on others. Therefore, otherwise healthy circuits trip, rather than only the overloaded path as designed under perfect isolation.
