Which outcome results when a hydroelectric turbine's speed control system excessively dampens wicket gate adjustments?

💡 Explanation

Excessive damping in the control loop employs critical damping, therefore a slower return to a steady state during load variations results, because it suppresses oscillatory behavior. This leads to extended settling time rather than water hammer issues; generator faults, or reduced mechanical wear.
