Which operational outcome occurs when exceeding a transformer's inrush tripping threshold during grid energization?

A)Nuisance breaker tripping occurs
B)Core saturation is mitigated
C)Reactive power demand decreases
D)Harmonic distortion remains stabilized

💡 Explanation

Nuisance breaker tripping occurs because the transformer inrush current triggers the breaker's magnetic trip unit meant for short circuits; therefore, the breaker opens, rather than allowing the transient current to subside through normal core magnetization.
