A particular set of harmonics called "triplens" has a _____ sequence.
A) negative
B) positive
C) zero
Triplens
Harmonics in an electrical system that are multiples of the third harmonic (e.g., 3rd, 9th, 15th), often causing additional heating in neutral wires.
Sequence
The order in which events, movements, or things follow each other or are arranged serially.
- Understand the concepts of positive, negative, and zero sequence harmonics and their effects on the electrical system.

Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Triplens are harmonics that are multiples of three (3rd, 9th, 15th, etc.) and they have a zero sequence. This means that the phase angles of these harmonics are such that they add up to zero when combined, which is characteristic of zero sequence harmonics.
