Mineral oil-filled electrical equipment in service. Guidance on the interpretation of dissolved and free gases analysis
This International Standard describes how the concentrations of dissolved gases or free gases may be interpreted to diagnose the condition of oil-filled electrical equipment in service and suggest future action.
This standard is applicable to electrical equipment filled with mineral insulating oil and insulated with cellulosic paper or pressboard-based solid insulation. Information about specific types of equipment such as transformers (power, instrument, industrial, railways, distribution), reactors, bushings, switchgear and oil-filled cables is given only as an indication in the application notes (see Annex A).
This standard may be applied, but only with caution, to other liquid-solid insulating systems.
In any case, the indications obtained should be viewed only as guidance and any resulting action should be undertaken only with proper engineering judgment.
