Abstract :
The use of sintered metal filters in the investigation of electrostatic charging tendency (ECT) in transformer oils was examined. Tests were conducted on the recirculating ECT tester. The results of passing two different oils through 60-μm filters are presented. The results obtained with the recirculating tester are sufficiently encouraging to warrant further development
