The insulating liquids for power transformers are still evolving area. The current trend is to move away from currently used mineral oil because it poses a threat to the environment and use the renewable, biodegradable nature ester oils instead. These oils are now well known but what keeps them from widespread usage are unbalanced properties. In some areas these natural oils excel (fire point, sulfur...
The most commonly used insulating liquid is mineral oil. Mineral oil is characterized by high flammability and poor biodegradability. On the other hand, this oil has very good electrical properties. For reasons of environmental protection is an effort to replace the mineral oil by alternative insulating liquids. The vegetable or synthetic oils may be used as an alternative insulating liquid. The rapeseed...
Demands on current electrical insulating systems have increasing trend toward tolerance to environmental safe conditions. This trend of course subsequently requires finding a new way in the field of application of materials compatible with the surrounding environment, e.g. easy biodegradable. This applies particularly for electrical insulating liquids used in distribution transformers since their...
Electrical insulation system is an important part of electrical equipment with high requirements — accuracy, quality, reliability and environmental protection. In power and distribution transformers is the most common electrical insulating system oil-paper system. The liquid component of the insulation system is used as a cooling and insulating medium as well. The most commonly used liquid insulating...
Natural esters are candidate element of transformer insulation system. Recently most common insulation in power transformers is composed of mineral oil and transformer paper. As there are efforts to preserve sustainable development, crude oil products should be eliminated and replaced by natural products, which are easily biodegradable. In past, it was shown, that natural esters may reach qualities...
