Which outcome occurs when grid transformer banks experience unexpected reactive power demand across unbalanced three-phase systems?

💡 Explanation

Increased reactive load causes voltage fluctuations and unequal current distribution. This triggers neutral current imbalances because unequal single-phase loads introduce circulating currents through the transformer windings' neutral connection. Therefore, neutral current rises, rather than improving voltage stability as evenly balanced systems do.
