← ScienceWhich risk increases when a high-voltage transformer's oil level drops below minimum?
A)Accelerated winding insulation degradation✓
B)Core lamination eddy current losses
C)Increased magnetic domain hysteresis
D)Reduced dielectric fluid breakdown voltage
💡 Explanation
Accelerated winding insulation degradation occurs because reduced oil exposes windings; increased heat causes oxidation. With lower oil levels, there will be less effective heat dissipation via convection, therefore the insulation degrades more rapidly rather than other potential issues.
