TRANSFORMERS COMMITTEE

Working Group for C57.100

Thermal Evaluation of Power and Distribution Transformers

Scope:

This standard provides test procedures to evaluate the thermal aging characteristics of insulation systems used in liquid-immersed distribution or power transformers. The dielectric liquid is part of the insulation system. The test procedure shall simulate practical service conditions of the insulation system, with the main emphasis on the thermal aging of materials in the candidate insulation system as compared to a conventional insulation system.
