Technology

Which outcome occurs when a solid-state circuit breaker in a high-voltage DC transmission line activates?

A)Suppression of transient over-voltage surges
B)Increased harmonics in the DC waveform
C)Elevated reactive power compensation needs
D)Greater electromagnetic field interference production

💡 Explanation

Activation enables transient voltage suppression because the solid-state breaker utilizes fast-switching semiconductors to clamp the voltage. This clamping absorbs excess energy, leading to transient suppression, therefore surges are mitigated rather than harmonics/EMF increases, preventing DC line flashovers.
