Petroleum oils have been used in electrical equipment since
the latter part of the last century. Sebastian de Ferranti, who
might be considered to have been the father of the
transformer, recognised their benefits as long ago as 1891.
heir performance has been improved a little since then, both
as a result of better refining techniques and in the way in
which they are selected and used. hey still represent a veryimportant component of much electrical power plant.
Firstly, it is appropriate to loo! a little at the sources and
production of oil.
"ll types of mineral oils are obtained from crude petroleum,
which is said to have been formed from buried and decayed
vegetable matter or by the action of water on metal carbides.

#rude petroleum is defined by "merican Society for esting
and $aterials, "S$. %&88 as follows'
A naturally occurring mixture, consisting predominantly ofhydrocarbons which is removed from the earth in liquid state
or is capable of being removed.
Crude petroleum is commonly accompanied by varyingquantities of extraneous substances such as water,
inorganic matter and gas.
The removal of such extraneous substances alone does not
change the status of the mixture as crude petroleum. If such
removal appreciably affects the composition of the oil
mixture then the resulting product is no longer crude
petroleum.

here are three main groups of hydrocarbon molecules.
hese are paraffins, napthenes and aromatics.
(ach has a characteristic molecular structure, and no twocrudes are e)actly ali!e in the relative proportions of the
hydrocarbon types or in the proportions and properties of the
products to which they give rise.
$any classifications have been proposed for the varioustypes of crudes, but the most generally accepted is that
based on the main constituent of the distillation residue and
consists of four descriptions' paraffinic, asphaltic, mi)ed or
intermediate, and napthenic.
he world*s !nown supply of crude oil is made up of very
appro)imately + per cent paraffinic, 18 per cent asphaltic
including - per cent napthenic and +- per cent mi)ed or
intermediate.

Viscosity of Transformer Oil
6n few wards, Viscosity of Transformer Oil can be said that7iscosity is the resistance of flow, at normal condition.
/bviously resistance to flow of transformer oil means
obstruction of convection circulation of oil inside the
transformer.
" good oil should have low viscosity so that it offers less
resistance to the convectional flow of oil thereby not affecting
the cooling of transformer. ow viscosity of transformer
oil is essential, but it is equally important that, the viscosity of
oil should increase as less as possible with decrease in
temperature. (very liquid becomes more viscous iftemperature decreases.

Dielectric Strength of Transformer Oil is also !nown
as Breakdown Voltage of transformer oil or BDV of
transformer oil.
:rea! down voltage is measured by observing at what voltage,
spar!ing starts between two electrodes immerged in the oil,
separated by specific gap. low value of :%7 indicates presence of
moisture content and conducting substances in the oil.
For measuring BDV of transformer oil, portable :%7 measuring
!it is generally available at site. 6n this !it, oil is !ept in a pot in
which one pair of electrodes are fi)ed with a gap of &.- mm in
some !it it ;mm between them. s and observe the voltage at which spar!ing
starts between the electrodes. hat means at which voltage

Specific Resistance (Resistivity) of Transformer Oil
his is another important property of transformer oil. his is
measure of %# resistance between two opposite sides of onecm5 bloc! of oil. 6ts unit is ta!en as ohm3cm at specific temperature.
4ith increase in temperature the resistivity of oil decreases rapidly.
?ust after charging a transformer after long shut down, the
temperature of the oil will be at ambient temperature and during full
load the temperature will be very high and may go up to 9@o
# atover load condition.
So resistivity of the insulating oil must be high at room temperature
and also it should have good value at high temperature as well.
hat is why specific resistance or resistivity of transformer oil
should be measured at &+o# as well as 9@o#.
$inimum standard Specific 2esistance of ransformer oil at 9@o# is
5-A 1@1& ohm cm and at &+o# it is 1-@@A1@1& ohm cm.

Dielectric Dissipation actor of tan delta of Transformer oil
%ielectric %issipation Factor is also !nown as loss factor or tan delta
of transformer oil. 4hen a insulating materials is placed between
live part and grounded part of an electrical equipment, lea!age
current will flow. "s insulating material is dielectric in nature
the electric current through the insulation ideally leads the voltage by
9@o. Bere voltage means the instantaneous voltage between live part
and ground of the equipment. :ut in reality no insulating materials
are perfect dielectric in nature.
Bence electric current through the insulator will lead the voltage with
an angle little bit shorter than 9@o. angent of the angle by which it is
short of 9@o is called %ielectric %issipation Factor or simply tan delta
of transformer oil.
8/9/2019 138330789 Transformer Oil 1
20/57
$ore clearly, the lea!age current through an insulation does
have two component one is capacitive or reactive and otherone is resistive or active.
6t is desirable to have loss angle as small as possible. So we
should try to !eep the value of tan C as small as possible.
Bigh value of this tan C is an indication of presence of
contaminants in transformer oil.
Bence there is a clear relationship between tanC and
resistivity of insulating oil. 6f resistivity of the insulating oil is
decreased, the value of tan3delta increases and vice verse.
6n one sentence it can be said that, tanC is measure of
imperfection of dielectric nature of insulation materials li!e oil.

!cidity of transformer oil, is harmful property. 6f oil
becomes acidic, water content in the oil becomes more
soluble to the the oil. "cidity of oil deteriorates the insulation
property of paper insulation of winding. "cidity acceleratesthee o)idation process in the oil.
"cid also includes rusting of iron in presence of moisture.
he acidity of transformer oil is measure of its acidic
constituents of contaminants. "cidity of oil is e)press in mg

lash Point of Transformer Oil
lash point of transformer oil is the temperature at which oilgives enough vapours to produce a flammable mi)ture with air.
his mi)ture gives momentary flash on application of flame
under standard condition.
Flash point is important because it specifies the chances offire ha0ard in the transformer. So it is desirable to have very
high flash point of transformer oil. 6n general it is more than
1;@oD1@o.
