← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when rapid grid resynchronization fails during parallel transformer operation?
A)Elevated circulating fault currents✓
B)Harmonic resonance in nearby loads
C)Localized dielectric transformer breakdown
D)Increased load tap changer wear
💡 Explanation
Elevated circulating fault currents results because impedance mismatch causes current flow between transformers during unsynchronized paralleling driven by voltage differences in the three phases. Therefore, fault currents surge, rather than optimal load distribution experienced during proper synchronization.
