Which consequence results when a ferromagnetic core saturates within pulsed-power transformer?

A)Decreased magnetizing inductance results
B)Increased dielectric breakdown strength
C)Enhanced magnetic field confinement
D)Improved transformer thermal efficiency

💡 Explanation

Core saturation drastically reduces the magnetic permeability because the magnetic domains are fully aligned. Therefore, the magnetizing inductance decreases because it's proportional to core permeability, rather than leading to insulation failure under high voltage.
