Which outcome arises when a HVAC system's refrigerant metering device allows excessive refrigerant flow into the evaporator coil?

💡 Explanation

When excessive refrigerant enters the evaporator, liquid slugging occurs because the refrigerant does not fully vaporize prior to reaching the compressor, leading to liquid entering the compressor cylinders. Therefore compressor overheating results, rather than reduced cooling, increased energy use, or coil freezing, which happen under different conditions.
