Silicone oils used insulating substances exhibit the both of organic and inorganic properties, and it has many superior characteristics such as the high thermal resistance and low thermal oxidation level when compared to other insulation oils. In order to investigate the dielectric loss due to the increase of viscosity, silicone oils of viscosity 1, 2, 5[cSt] had been chosen as the specimen and experiment has been performed in the temperature range of -70[.deg. C] - 65[.deg. C] and frequency range of 30 - 1*10$\^$5/[Hz]. As a result, the linear decrease of loss at low frequency region in high temperature was due to the influence of applying frequency, whereas the increase of loss at high frequency region was contributed by electrode's resistance. And increasing viscosity, the activation energy increased from 3.77[kcal/mole] to 7.21[kcal/mole]. The dipole moment of specimen was become clear 1.48 - 2.26[debyel in high temperature region(5 - 65[.deg. C]) and 1.05 - 1.80[debye] in low temperature region (-70 - -25[.deg. C])respectively.
