← TechnologyWhich risk increases following transient voltage within a motor circuit's suppression diode?
A)Reverse bias breakdown✓
B)Increased capacitive reactance
C)Reduced circuit impedance
D)Elevated switching frequency
💡 Explanation
Applying a transient voltage exceeding the diode inverse voltage rating can cause reverse breakdown mechanisms within its insulating properties to fail; therefore, reverse bias breakdown probability increases, rather than capacitive effects, under this over-voltage environment.
