← TechnologyWhich risk increases sharply if transformer differential protection isn't implemented correctly within a power substation's circuit architecture?
A)Catastrophic winding insulation failure✓
B)Increased core saturation probability
C)Elevated bushing flashover instances
D)Spurious tap changer operations
💡 Explanation
A large fault current can directly damage windings because under-configured differential schemes may fail to isolate internal transformer faults using circuit breakers rapidly. Therefore, insulation suffers catastrophic failure rather than handling high current briefly and momentarily, or tolerating saturation/flashover events.
