← ScienceWhich consequence results when reactive power increases excessively on transmission line?
A)Ferranti effect voltage amplification✓
B)Reduced magnetic saturation losses
C)Mitigated skin effect resistance
D)Increased dielectric breakdown strength
💡 Explanation
Increased reactive power elevates the voltage profile due to the Ferranti effect on long transmission lines because excessive charging current produces a voltage rise. Therefore, the receiver end voltage rises, rather than reducing losses or improving insulation.
