The current drawn by the line due to corona losses is___________?

Correct answer: A. non-sinusoidal

  • A. non-sinusoidal
  • B. sinusoidal
  • C. triangular
  • D. square

Explanation

Corona produces sharp current pulses as the surrounding air repeatedly ionises, so the resulting line current is non-sinusoidal rather than a smooth sine wave.
