Q1.	If string efficiency is 100 percent it means that
A.	potential across each disc is zero [Wrong Answer]
B.	potential across each disc is same [Correct Answer]
C.	one of the insulator discs is shorted [Wrong Answer]
D.	none of the above [Wrong Answer]
View Answer 18 -9 Explanation:- Answer : B Discuss it below : Akshit Samnani Said on 2020-12-11 07:35:59 String efficiency becomes 100% if the voltage across each disc is exactly the same, but this is an ideal case and impossible in practical scenario. !!
