Which risk increases when power transformer's cooling fan circuit fails during peak load?

A)Dielectric oil breakdown due to overheating
B)Core saturation from increased voltage
C)Winding insulation failure from harmonics
D)Arc flash from imbalanced current

💡 Explanation

When a transformer cooling fan circuit fails during peak load, reduced heat dissipation causes the transformer oil temperature to rise significantly because heat is no longer conducted efficiently. Therefore, dielectric oil breakdown results, rather than core saturation, insulation failure, or arcing, which require different overload or failure modes.
