Abstract :
This paper presents the results of thermal ageing of paper oil insulation at 140° C when DBDS and mercaptan sulphur are present in oil. It discusses the effects of simultaneous presence of DBDS and mercaptan sulphur at higher temperatures. It is observed that DBDS and Mercaptan sulphur increase copper corrosion. Dielectric response using Frequency Domain Spectroscopy and Polarization/depolarization current in presence of DBDS and Mercaptan sulphur in oil during thermal ageing was studied and the results are discussed.
