Which outcome occurs when harmonics distort voltage within sensitive electronic circuits?

💡 Explanation

Harmonic distortion can cause equipment overheating because increased current flow generates excessive heat due to skin effect; therefore, insulation degrades and components fail, rather than benefiting power factor or reducing interference.
