Assertion: a one ampere secondary is preferred to a five ampere secondary in a large substation. Reason: the burden imposed by the connecting leads falls by a factor of twenty-five.

  • A.both the assertion and the reason are true and the reason explains the assertion
  • B.both the assertion and the reason are true but the reason does not explain the assertion
  • C.the assertion is true but the reason given for it is false
  • D.the assertion is false although the reason offered is a true statement in itself

Answer: A

Lead burden is proportional to the square of the secondary current, so a fivefold reduction in current reduces it twenty-five-fold. In a large station where the instruments are far away that is the decisive consideration, and it is the reason given.
