← TechnologyWhich consequence results when differential current within a load circuit protected by GFCI breaker abnormally increases?
A)Nuisance breaker tripping occurs✓
B)Increased power grid frequency
C)Harmonic distortion is minimized
D)Voltage regulation is improved
💡 Explanation
Nuisance tripping of the GFCI occurs given differential current triggers a ground fault pathway to trip the breaker, because internal imbalance trips the breaker. Therefore, the circuit disconnects, rather than correct grid frequency which only changes with generator load changes.
