← TechnologyWhich outcome results when a faulty autotransformer lacks appropriately rated circuit breakers?
A)Cascading breaker trip propagates widely✓
B)Localized winding temperature remains stable
C)Voltage regulation improves unexpectedly anyway
D)Harmonic distortion gets completely eliminated
💡 Explanation
Widespread breaker tripping occurs, because improper sizing prevents selective coordination and overcurrent protection via I2t withstand. Therefore, a fault leads to cascading failures, rather than isolating the problem locally if breakers were chosen carefully.
