ANALYSIS OF TRANSFORMER OIL TESTING EQUIPMENT

Abstract

Transformer oil is subject to various factors such as electrical, thermal, and chemical contamination, which can lead to improper operation of transformers. Transformer oil plays a crucial role, particularly in cooling transformers. Transformer oils must undergo testing and analysis for several reasons:
• To determine key electrical properties
• To assess the oil's suitability for continued use
• To extend component service life
• To identify transformer aging conditions
• To detect electrical or thermal faults
• To evaluate oil quality
Transformer oil is vital for ensuring the reliability and long-term performance of electrical equipment. Special testing devices are used to timely determine the oil's quality and condition. This article analyzes the types of transformer oil testing equipment, their working principles, and their significance.
