Which outcome occurs when excessively high frequency current flows through a distribution transformer?

A)Increased hysteresis core losses occur
B)Enhanced dielectric strength of insulation
C)Minimized magnetic field saturation effects
D)Optimal eddy current arc suppression

💡 Explanation

Increased core losses result because the increased frequency intensifies the magnetic field reversals within the transformer core; this leads to greater energy dissipation through hysteresis. High frequency causes greater hysteresis losses, therefore core overheats, rather than improved insulation; lower frequencies would minimize hysteresis losses.
