← TechnologyWhich risk increases in a power grid when large transformers experience excessive VAR demand?
A)System-wide voltage collapse develops✓
B)Transformer core lamination degradation
C)Localized eddy current suppression
D)Reflected impedance stabilization faults
💡 Explanation
Excessive VAR demand forces transformers to operate beyond their reactive power capacity, which leads to a voltage drop; consequently reactive power supply diminishes due to mutual coupling effects, therefore inducing a system-wide voltage collapse, rather than local effects or impedance stabilization.
