Technology

Which consequence results when a ground fault generates excessive current within a three-phase transformer's delta-wye connected secondary neutral circuit?

A)Arc flash hazard increase
B)Ferranti effect amplification
C)Transformer core saturation
D)Capacitor bank overloading

💡 Explanation

Arc flash risk increases because current spikes due to ground faults trigger a high-energy discharge. Therefore, workers risk severe burns, rather than Ferranti voltage rise or core saturation, given the fault is current-driven, rather than voltage-driven or magnetic.
