Which outcome occurs when harmonics circulate in transformer windings?

A)Increased component thermal stress
B)Improved voltage regulation occurs
C)Reduced eddy current losses
D)Enhanced core saturation margin

💡 Explanation

Harmonics causes increased component thermal stress increase because circulating currents induce extra heat via the skin effect phenomenon. Therefore, overheating ensues, rather than other effects, because harmonic frequencies exacerbate losses within the core material.
