Which effect results when a hydraulic servo connected to a PLC experiences excessive derivative gain?

A)System oscillating around setpoint
B)Slow gradual approach to target
C)Complete loss of motor torque
D)Uncontrollable rapid overheating response

💡 Explanation

Excessive derivative gain in the PLC leads to over-correction because it amplifies noise via derivative action resulting in oscillations, rather than smooth error decay; therefore oscillation happens rather than predictable motion because overshoot is amplified.
