The degradation of transformer insulating oils through corrosion represents a critical challenge for the reliable operation of power transformers. Corrosion mechanisms are intricately linked to ...

WEIDMANN Electrical Technology, Inc. will present an Info Session titled “Insulation in Distribution Transformers – Functions and Innovative Solutions”, at the upcoming IEEE PES T&D Exposition. April ...

U.S. electricity consumption continues to increase almost 2% annually. As the load growth spurs calls for new power plants and transmission lines, it’s easy to forget the impact of the additional ...

Liquid insulation is one of the ways of ensuring transformers – which convert electric power from high voltages to lower voltages – remain safe. Mineral oil, however, has been the main insulating ...

This is an example of a 45-kVA size-rated 75-kVA green transformer in a typical pole-mounted CPFL installation. After 10 years of a research and development (R&D) project that included the evaluation ...

Electrical components in vehicles and power stations continue to shrink while becoming more powerful, so engineers need materials that pack more performance in a smaller space. For example, the ...

Dissolved Gas Analysis (DGA) is one of the most trusted diagnostic tools for assessing the internal condition of a ...
