Resumen

In order to maintain continuous power supply in the electrical system, condition monitoring of the sensitivity equipments in power system is very essential. Among those equipment in which more concentration required is Power transformer. To determine the performance of transformer, it is necessary to have investigations on ageing of transformer oil due to thermal degradation. In this work an effort has been made to analyze various critical parameters like acidity, Breakdown Voltage (BDV), viscosity, volume resistivity, loss tangent, dielectric constant and spectral response for different range of thermal degradation of transformer oil with various compositions of materials like pressboard and Kraft paper. As initiative an exclusive Thermal-UltraViolet (UV) analysis has been carried out to investigate the spectral response of transformer oil. By estimating the condition of oil, the unexpected failure of transformer and power outages can be prevented.
