Measurement of moisture contents of oil-paper in transformer with RVM

RVM을 이용한 변압기 절연유와 절연지의 온도에 따른 수분함유량 측정

Chemical methods for moisture contents detection of insulation system in transformer must dismount equipment for sampling, and there is shortcoming such as acquiring partial data for measuring. Also the samples can't immediately analyze in field. The Recovery Voltage Method (RVM) will be able to measure a moisture contents at low voltage without dismounting equipment. Therefore, in advanced countries RVM would be used to measure the moisture contents which permeates to the insulation system without weighting additive degradation or mechanical damage. In this paper we have investigated for overcoming these shortcomings using the RVM, and we have measured the moisture contents of transformer insulation with temperature.
