Which consequence results when transformer insulation degrades near conductors?

💡 Explanation

The increased electric field proximity leads to enhanced field concentration, which causes dielectric breakdown because the insulation's ability to resist voltage decreases; therefore, breakdown happens rather than improved strength or reduced magnetic fields because of insulation failure, not electromagnetism.
