Abstract :
WIRE INSULATION is probably the most important component of the insulation system used in oil-immersed transformers. Its strategic location — in contact with and separating turns — results in the insulation operating at temperatures very near that of the conductor which is the maximum temperature encountered in the transformer. Therefore, its thermal aging characteristics are of considerable interest.
