← TechnologyWhich risk increases when prolonged voltage oscillations occur in a distribution transformer's open-delta protection circuit during unbalanced load conditions?
A)Resonance-induced ferroresonant circuit failure✓
B)Decreased transmission coefficient efficiency
C)Increased power factor phase offset
D)Elevated ground fault impedance levels
💡 Explanation
Ferroresonance becomes a risk because the distribution transformer open-delta protection circuit's non-linearity and capacitance components enter a resonant state, therefore causing dangerous overvoltages that stress insulating materials rather than performing its protective function in balanced scenarios.
