Which hazard triggers 'arc flash' during transformer maintenance?

💡 Explanation

During transformer maintenance, a loose conductor near energized components can initiate an 'arc flash' through plasma formation via *partial discharge*, because this creates an uncontrolled current path; therefore large energy release occurs, rather than current disruption arising from inductive saturation.
