← TechnologyWhich risk increases when induced current exceeds thermal limits three-phase power autotransformer systems?
A)System voltage regulation improves
B)Ferrite core saturation worsens
C)Eddy current losses decrease
D)Dielectric oil breakdown accelerates✓
💡 Explanation
Dielectric oil breakdown accelerates in transformers because excessive induced current causes overheating, then a reduced dielectric strength of the oil insulation via Thermal Runaway. Therefore, oil breakdown accelerates, rather than preventing it or impacting unrelated systems directly.
