← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when a smart grid's dynamic line rating exceeds capacity?
A)Cascading power outage occurs✓
B)Increased reactive power compensation
C)Harmonic distortion mitigation activates
D)Improved transmission line efficiency
💡 Explanation
A cascading power outage occurs because exceeding capacity triggers thermal overload protection, causing successive disconnections via protective relaying rather than stable operation; therefore, widespread failure occurs, rather than localized adjustments of power quality.
