  • Abstract
    A number of power utilities have reported high failures of power transformers due to flow electrification phenomena. Despite extensive work for more than two decades the problem still remains unsolved because of its complexity. The paper presents the outcome of the investigation carried out on several aspects of flow electrification, viz. effect of pressboard composition, thickness, type, surface finish on the charging behaviour of the oil
