How the Transformer oil testing is done & Why oil dielectric
goes LOW & what is solution for that ??

Answer Posted / saroj

TRF oil is tested in a glass pot where high voltage,KV is
applied between two electrodes and sparking at electrode to
be observed. For good oil , it comes about 40~60KV/mm .If
it comes lower then filteration is required. Those TRF
having tap changing is frequently required it is
recommended to do filteration in once in year.Also its
value goes low because of moisture ingress in oil .

My question is whether bellow formula is correct to find bus size for 46kA for 0.5 second & what is RT in bellow formula. formula to calculate the size of busbar to withstand the thermal stresses due to currents with duration of 0.2 sec to 5 sec. Sp = RT( I x I x t) / K Where Sp – is the cross sectional area of bus bar in millimeters. I -    is the value of AC fault current. t -    is the operating time of disconnecting device in seconds. K –  is the factor depending on the material of the conductor, insulation and initial and final temperature. Value of ‘k’ for copper is 143.
