Dielectric strength*
Water content
Neutral-point application
Minimum 30 kV / 2.5 mm
Maximum 40 ppm
Use in auto-transformer or
regulation in delta winding
Minimum 40 kV / 2.5 mm
Maximum 30 ppm
Minimum 30 kV / 2.5 mm
Maximum 30 ppm
The temperature of the oil sample must be measured at the time when the oil was taken.
The values specified for dielectric strength apply to oil temperatures of 20 5 C at the time of
evaluating the oil sample.
Recommendation:
Dielectric strength of > 50 kV / 2.5 mm for new insulating oil that must be filled in after maintenance.

Ask the OLTC manufacturer if other insulating liquids (ester liquids, etc.) are used.

Facts:
Diverter switch oil of OILTAP is a mixture of oil,
carbon deposits and humidity
Water absorption of carbon deposits is several times
as high as water absorption of oil
Carbonized oil with inadmissibly high water content puts
insulation distances at risk which are exposed to voltage
stress
Effects:
Electrical-field distortion with local discharges
Thermal decomposition of surface of insulating material
Creepage paths
Breakdown of insulating distance with flashover
Switching shaft
Example of creepage paths

Summary
Maintenance
maintenance intervals of the respective on-load tap-changer shall be observed at any time to
ensure trouble-free operation of the transformer. Original spare parts and trained service staff
have also be seen as mandatory.
