All the CTs had the Oil Results within acceptable limits
, except for three CTs. The healthy CTs were cleared for
charging & it was decided to monitor the bellow levels
during the first 24 hours. The bellow level would have
gone up compared to the balance CTs if there would
have been gas generation.

It was observed that for all the CTs the DGA were well
within the limits mentioned above. However majority
CTs showed that the DGA was well within the limits set
for new CTs given below ;
y H2 = 50 ppm.
y CH4 = 5 ppm.
y C2H2 , C2H4 , C2H6 = 5 ppm.
y CO = 250 ppm.
y CO2 = 500 ppm.
One more conclusion was drawn based on the analysis
that only when the Absolute Limits set are exceeded
even for one gas , then only the analysis should be
carried based on various gas ratios.
It was also decided that the DGA should be repeated
after about 18 months of service and the limits set for
the DGA are as under ;
y H2 = 150 ppm.
y CH4 = 20 ppm.
y C2H2 = 15 ppm. , C2H4 & C2H6 = 20 ppm.
y CO = 400 ppm.
y CO2 = 800 ppm.
6. Investigation Type Tests
In order to confirm that only Air / Gas Saturated oil was
the reason for failure of CTs , it was decided withdraw
one CT after about 2 months of satisfactory service.
This CT was routine tested & despatched 2 years prior
to the date of investigation testing. The Series of Tests
carried out were ;
