Which risk increases when aircraft electrostatic discharge protection degrades?

💡 Explanation

The risk of fuel ignition increases with degraded discharge protection because electrostatic discharge creates a spark through Capacitive Discharge, potentially igniting fuel vapors; therefore fuel ignition increases, rather than structural weakening because that occurs through corrosion/stress.
