Capacitance and DF monitoring
Dissipation factor (DF) correlate well with amount moisture
remain in solid insulation (another example is that
capacitance correlate well with degree of impregnation)
However, DF is also very much dependent on insulation
temperature

Capacitance and DF monitoring
Dissipation factor (DF) correlate well with amount moisture
remain in solid insulation
However, DF is also dependent on insulation temperature
Megger patented method Individual Temperature
Correction (ITC) solves the above problem
C and %DF is measured in a limited frequency range,
e.g. 1000 Hz to 0.1 Hz
%DF at a given temperature (e.g. 100C) for a given
frequency (e.g. 50 Hz) is presented.

Temp dependence Conclusions from a project
Power factor values are affected by variation of temperature. In most cases (but not all),
tan delta value increases with increase in temperature. Rate of change is different for
different makes of the transformers and bushings
The temperature correction factors (for correcting measured power factor to 20 C) are
different for different makes. Hence temperature correction factors as given in
IEEE/C57.12.90 can not be applied to these components

The Dielectric Response (capacitance and
dissipation factor) as function of frequency
and/or temperature
The curve shapes of the frequency dependent capacitance and
dissipation factor (for a specific insulation with a specific aging status) are
the same at all temperatures within a temperature range (typical range is
0 80C)
The curves can form a Master Curve by shift curves to a reference
temperature (e.g. 20C). The shift is calculated by Arrhenius equation by
enter the temperatures (in Kelvin) and a single activation energy (typical
0.9 eV for oil-impregnated cellulose).
A set of Master Curves representing e.g. oil-impregnated Kraft paper (or
Crepe paper) at different moisture contents are then act as Database
when assessing moisture content in e.g. instrument transformers or
bushings.
8
Creating a Master Curve (to be used at any
temperature from e.g. 5C to about 80C)
Left-hand-side: measurements at 25C, 30C, 35C, 40C and 45C
Right-hand-side: Left-hand side measurement shifted to 20C using a
single activation energy of 0.90 eV

How frequency dependence at a single temperature are
transformed to a temperature dependence
- Individual temperature correction (ITC)
The Master Curve or a frequency sweep of a test object that can be
assumed follow a master curve, allow shift in frequency representing
any temperature in temperature it is valid (typically 5-80C, or for high
temperature databases 90-140C)
Then:
The frequency sweep can be ITC corrected to a reference
temperature
The frequency sweep can be transferred to a temperature
dependence curve for e.g. the 50Hz dissipation factor (se coming
slides)
Obviously a Individual Temperature Correction (ITC) can be done
for a single frequency measurement back to a reference
temperature.

The Dielectric Response (capacitance and

and/or temperature.
Under the assumption that the insulation system follow a
master curve:
A DFR frequency sweep can be transformed to
A DFR temperature sweep
And vice versa
Increase temperature is equivalent to lowering the frequency
