← ScienceWhich risk increases when a transformer's laminated core experiences interlaminar breakdown?
A)Increased eddy current losses✓
B)Enhanced magnetic flux density
C)Improved dielectric insulation
D)Reduced hysteresis energy loss
💡 Explanation
Increased interlaminar breakdown reduces the core's resistance, so localized voltage gradients cause greater power dissipation via eddy currents. Therefore, eddy current losses increase, rather than improved magnetic flux behavior, because the energy dissipates in heat.
