Which outcome occurs when excessively sensitive ground fault protection settings are configured in an industrial motor control center?

💡 Explanation

When excessively sensitive, ground fault protection misinterprets normal leakage as a fault, causing nuisance tripping of circuit breakers; this is due to incorrect differential current monitoring because the threshold is too low; therefore, breakers trip unnecessarily rather than only during actual faults.
