Strong magnetic fields created by high currents can result in:910 A. Arc flash B. Arc blast C. Large mechanical stresses that may cause conductors to move D. Shock

Sagot :

Answer:

B. Arc blast

Explanation:

Arc blast are as a result of rapid injection of electrical energy into an arc. These shock waves and arc blast pressure wave at low level can lead to damage of eardrums at lower levels and cardiac arrest at high levels.

Strong magnetic fields created by high currents (> 100 kA) can result to equipment destruction. These arc blast hazards are mostly found in high-energy power circuits and large capacitor banks.
