Which risk increases sharply if transformer differential protection isn't implemented correctly within a power substation's circuit architecture?

💡 Explanation

A large fault current can directly damage windings because under-configured differential schemes may fail to isolate internal transformer faults using circuit breakers rapidly. Therefore, insulation suffers catastrophic failure rather than handling high current briefly and momentarily, or tolerating saturation/flashover events.
