Which risk increases when a step-up transformer's insulation fails in a high humidity environment?

💡 Explanation

Dielectric breakdown increases because the *increased electric field stress* due to insulation compromise, coupled with moisture ingress, exceeds the dielectric strength; therefore impedance is lowered rather than something else, because current flow cannot be impeded.
