The furfural, generated by decomposition of insulating paper, the amount of metal in insulating oil, and tano(electrical properties of insulating oil)have been studied for the insulating oil in pole transformer with accelarated thermal aging test. It has been found that tan $\delta$ is affected by adding components of the transformer. The examination of amount of metal, which exhibits catalytic behavior to oxidation of insulating oil, suggested that the amounts of copper increase with degradation time. A comparison between tano and copper amount suggested that the amounts of copper for attention are above 0.2[pp]). Finally, the examination of amount of furfural revealed that the amounts of furfural increase with degradation time. As a consequence, these results could be used for diagnosis of pole transformer.former.

In this paper, an experiment result on overload of distribution transformer was arranged by top oil temperature depending on capacity and time. This result shows the definition on overload of transformer is different by some factors such as ambient temperature and immediate load. In other words, increased temperature in range of regulation(50K) has time to spare even if the condition of transformer is overload. The algorithm presented in this paper is based on the international standard (IEEE std C57.91), and the safety of switchboard is diagnosed by this aspect mentioned on overload of transformer.

In this paper, we introduced about safety algorithm of transformer for MV/LV distribution customers using by fuzzy theory. Overload of transformer becomes different by surrounding temperature. And parameters about overload of transformer are connection each other. Therefore, we organize safety algorithm consider overload of transformer and surrounding temperature in this research. And we induce the relational expression of each parameters using experiment data of IEEE std C57.91-1995. Deduction of result used fuzzy reasoning. We guess the safety algorithm suggested in this paper shows the new direction that heavy electrical equipments including switchboard are going to develop in the future.

Large Power transformer is a complex and critical component of power plant and consists of cellulosic paper, insulation oil, core, coil etc. Insulation materials of transformer and related equipment break down to liberate dissolved gas due to corona, partial discharge, pyrolysis or thermal decomposition. The dissolved gas kinds can be related to the type of electrical faults, and the rate of gas generation can indicate the severity of the fault. The identities of gases being generated are using very useful to decide the condition of transformation status. Therefore dissolved gas analysis is one of the best condition monitoring methods for power transformer. Also, on-line multi-gas analyzer has been developed and installed to monitor the condition of critical transformers. Rogers method, IEC method, key gas method and Duval Triangle method are used to failure diagnosis typically, and those methods are using the ratio or kinds of dissolved gas to evaluate the condition of transformer. This paper analyzes the reliability of transformer diagnostic methods considering actual dissolved gas concentration. Fault diagnosis is performed based on the dissolved gas of five transformers which experienced various fault respectively in the field, and the diagnosis result is compared with the actual off-line fault analysis. In this comparison result, Diagnostic methods using dissolved gas ratio like Rogers method, IEC method are sometimes fall outside the ratio code and no diagnosis but Duval triangle method and Key gas method is correct comparatively.

Stability and reliability of a power system in many respects depend on the condition of power transformers. Essential devices as power transformers are in a transmission and distribution system. Being one of the most expensive and important elements, a power transformer is a highly essential element, whose failures and damage may cause the outage of a power system. To detect the power transformer faults, dissolved gas analysis (DGA) is a widely-used method because of its high sensitivity to small amount of electrical faults. Among the various diagnosis methods, Rogers diagonsis method has been widely used in transformer in service. But this method cannot offer accurate diagnosis for all the faults. This paper proposes a fault diagnosis method of oil-filled power transformers using PNN(Probability Neural Network) based Rogers diagnosis method. The test result show better performance than conventional Rogers diagnosis method.

The impact of the convected charges, which is caused by the electrification phenomina, in the oil-paper insulation systems of power transformers has been numerically investigated using FEM. The potential distribution of the oil-paper insulation system is assumed to be governed by three equations instead of the classical Laplace equation. When the charge density of oil and the conduction current are kept high, the field distortion or the interrace in a power transformer is considerably distorted due to the convected charges.

HTS (High Temperature Superconducting) Transformer has the several useful characteristics in the viewpoints of technical and economical. Especially, an HTS transformer replaces the copper wire coils in a conventional transformer with lower loss HTS wire. In addition, inexpensive, environmentally benign liquid nitrogen replaces the conventional oil as the electrical insulation (dielectric) and provides the necessary cooling for the HTS transformer Therefore, the Life-cycle cost of an HTS transformer is much more attractive than conventional because it is more energy efficient, lighter in weight, smaller in size, and environmentally compliant. HTS transformer can be the best way to replace with conventional transformer in the future. In these days, companies world-wide have conducted researches on HTS transformer. A development project for a 154kV HTS transformer is proceeding at a research center and university in Korea. In this paper, we investigate the expected price of HTS transformer to have a merit in viewpoint of economic aspect. First, life-cycle cost of conventional transformer is calculated and based on this, the expected price of HTS transformer is evaluated. which HTS transformer is competitive against conventional transformer.

In this paper, the pheonmena of flowing electrification is experimently studied in the model transformer of a super high voltage transformer. The current of natural terminal which is flowed by the flowing electrification is increased according to oil flow, but according to the oil temperature the current is decreased and the direction of the current is changed.

It has been proven that the dissolved gas analysis (DGA) is the most effective and convenient method to diagnose the transformers. The DGA is a simple, inexpensive, and non intrusive technique. Among the various diagnosis methods, IEC 60599 has been widely used in transformer in service. But this method cannot offer accurate diagnosis for all the faults. This paper proposes a fault diagnosis method of oil-filled power transformers using DGA and Intelligent Probability Model. To demonstrate the validity of the proposed method, experiment is performed and its results are illustrated.
