Which outcome occurs when thermal runaway in EV battery pack overloads a bypass circuit breaker?

A)Cascading cell failures propagate rapidly
B)Battery pack voltage remains stable
C)Heat generation instantly decreases
D)Cooling system immediately compensates fully

💡 Explanation

Rapid propagation happens because thermal runaway causes excessive amp draw, which, although intended to trigger the breaker, can exceed its breaking capacity. Therefore cascading thermal events occur, rather than immediate isolation of the cell, because available surge capacity is exceeded under this condition.
