← TechnologyWhich risk increases when exceeding a transformer's breaker interrupt rating?
A)Cascading protection system failures occur
B)Resonance causes unintended circuit energization
C)Hysteresis generates excessive core heating
D)Arc flash energy rises exponentially✓
💡 Explanation
Exceeding interrupt rating means the arc is not extinguished, therefore increased arc flash energy is released due to excessive ionization, rather than the breaker interrupting the fault quickly & safely disconnecting the circuit.
