← TechnologyWhich consequence occurs when sustained low-level earth faults circulate neutral-ground bonding circuits in industrial power distribution systems?
A)Elevated touch potential near equipment✓
B)Increased overall system power factor
C)Transformer core saturation decreases smoothly
D)Balanced three-phase current distribution
💡 Explanation
Elevated touch potential occurs because circulating currents through the `ground impedance` create voltage gradients near equipment. Therefore, unsafe voltages appear during faults, rather than balanced currents due to properly cleared faults or improved power factor from capacitor banks.
