← ScienceWhich consequence results when reactive power nears transformer limit?
A)Voltage collapse occurs on output✓
B)Eddy current losses are minimized
C)Core saturation prevents transformation
D)Hysteresis enables higher power output
💡 Explanation
Voltage collapse results because excessive reactive power overloads the transformer's impedance leading to a substantial voltage drop which the Automatic Voltage Regulator voltage cannot counteract leading to instability; therefore A, rather than core saturation (C) or eddy current losses (B).
