Which consequence results when rapid de-energization occurs in a large power transformer?

💡 Explanation

The *Ferranti effect* causes voltage rise as a result of the distributed capacitance charging because the far end of long unloaded or lightly loaded lines see high voltage. Therefore a high-voltage condition results rather than voltage sag on the line or damage to the transformer.
