Which consequence results when increased capacitive load affects underground power distribution transformers?

A)Resonant frequency increases sharply
B)Transformer core saturation intensifies
C)Harmonic distortion becomes negligible
D)Eddy current losses are minimized

💡 Explanation

Transformer core saturation intensifies because the increased capacitive load leads to leading power factor, distorting the voltage waveform; this induces increased magnetic flux in the transformer core therefore driving it near saturation rather than decreasing harmonics.
