← ScienceWhich outcome results when a transformer core saturates?
A)Increased harmonic distortion in output✓
B)Improved voltage regulation capabilities
C)Reduced core hysteresis losses noticed
D)Enhanced transformer thermal stability noted
💡 Explanation
Core saturation increases harmonic distortion because the magnetic field no longer responds linearly to the input current, driving the transformer into a non-linear operating region, therefore output waveform suffers, rather than improves regarding, regulation; hysteresis or stability.
