Which risk increases significantly when protective CT saturation occurs within high-voltage power transformer differential protection systems?

💡 Explanation

CT saturation introduces inaccuracies in measured currents; the differential relay misinterprets inrush or fault current as an internal fault because of the magnetic core's *nonlinear magnetizing inductance*. False tripping is therefore highly probable, rather than accurate fault isolation or voltage imbalance.
