View Answer 6 -4 Explanation:- Answer : A Discuss it below : Sravan kumar Said on 2018-05-07 22:57:32 I think dead short circuit is uncleared fault , the winding may completely damaged. Anshuman Srivastava Said on 2018-03-13 01:47:48 Way dead short circuit is most dangerous and not to be all ? Can you explain it ? Sir! !!
