Which outcome occurs when a three-phase power transformer in a distribution system experiences single-phase isolation?

💡 Explanation

When single-phasing occurs due to a blown fuse or line break, unbalanced currents flow, because third-order harmonics are generated, causing harmonic current injection into the grid. Therefore, harmonic distortion increases, rather than improved power factor, balanced voltage, or decreased skin effect which require balanced conditions.
