There is not any technical name for the transformer oil,
its only the specification which made the crude oil to
transformer oil(insulating oil). Nepthanic oil, Peraphenic
oil, Mineral Oil (its the specification which process the
crude oil to the nepthane base for the cooling of
transformer which have various acceptance norms as

A three phase load, around 4 km away from the 11/0.433KV distribution transformer (Neutral of Transformer is solidily earthed) and consisting of mainly very costly and sensitive electronic equipments is giving trouble due to high voltage difference between neutral and body earth. Whether this problem can addressed by connecting neutral at the load point solidly to earth?
