Which mechanism causes widespread voltage sag when an urban electrical substation’s main breaker trips?

💡 Explanation

Cascading thermal overload tripping by increased current draw and reactive power imbalance initiates a cycle of stress on adjacent breakers; therefore, the system collapses, rather than stabilizing, because each breaker is thermally limited.
