Liquid-immersed pole transformers have utilized an insulation system consisting of natural cellulose-based materials and mineral oil for many years. If the transformers are installed with the abruptly changing load over limitation, its insulation materials are apt to unexpected aging with high temperature. Therefore we have been conscious of developing a transformer that is more thermally stable then conventional types. To measure temperature distribution in the winding of conventional and newly designed transformers, temperature sensors were installed fordirect reading of oil and conductor temperatures at transformers. And we conducted accelerating aging test for these transformers. The measuring data had made use of the design to hybrid insulation system. Also we could find the possibility of this insulation system to apply in pole mounted transformers.

In this paper, to developing thermally and mechanically upgraded ones, we dismounted pole transformers used in the fields for over 13 years and conducted aged oil analysis. Also, when the cellulose and aramid papers in test cell were aging with oil at $130^{\circ}C$ for 3000 hours, with the testing period cellulose paper deteriorated more rapidly than the others. For example dielectric strength and dissipation factor of papers deteriorated with aging time. For evaluation of thermal aging characteristics, a mineral oil-immersed transformer was constructed with hybrid insulation system comprised of aramid paper and cellulose insulation. A Hybrid system has economic advantages. Cellulose materials are confined to cooler regions of the transformer winding. And aramid papers are served to insulate contact parts of hot conductors.

In this paper, we analyze customers' working electric energy (kWh) which is served pole-transformer in order to reduce peak load current error which is generated in application load correlation equation. The characteristic of electric load which customers are using is classified by customer's working electric energy (kWh) and ratio of cooling equipment possession. For the input data of fuzzy model, we used to kWh on April which represents basic load and kWh which is increased from April to August. The April kWh is used to classify into large, medium, small customer. Also, the increased kWh is used to know information of cooling equipment possession. For the output value of fuzzy model, we can determined peak load current limit in application load correlation equation.

In this paper, the relation between the increment of metallic content such as copper(Cu) and iron(Fe) according to degradation of pole-transformer oil and change of electrical characteristics according to increment of metallic content was studied. As the result, electrical characteristics was decrease according to increment of metallic content, especially copper content, and the trend of T.C.G(Total Carbonic Gas) agreed with the trend of copper content.

In this paper, aging of insulating oil in pole transformer has been studied by performing accelerated thermal aging test. Dissolved gases were extracted by air bubbling method. Concentration of dissolved gases were modified by extraction ratio of each gases in insulting oil. Aging of insulting materials were proceeded by thermal degradation and oxidation reaction. Both of the reactions followed zeroth order kinetics. Formation rate equations for hydrocarbons, carbon oxides, and hydrogen were derived. It was conformed by gas analysis and UV-visible spectrophotometric method that iron core and copper coil in pole transformer act as catalyst during the aging process.

This paper describes the dissipation factor measuring techniques of insulating oil on the operating transformer by using digital signal processing. After applying voltage to the electrodes which is installed In a transformer, acquiring source voltage and current of electrodes and using cross-correlation techniques. we can check the dissipation factor of insulating oil. To Improve measuring accuracy and the speed of process, we use hardware such as TMS320C31 DSP board and analog filter and software such as cross-correlation techniques, rectangular window, and digital filtering techniques. We simulated the measuring accuracy and the degree of the noise effect of this new measuring techniques by using computer simulation, and compared the simplified measuring devices with schering bridge on degraded insulating oil. The result showed that this measuring technique can be used as diagnostic method on the pole transformers.

Daily use characteristics of apparent power supplied to distribution transformer can be separated into two different time zone of waking hours and sleeping hours. In sleeping hours, using amount of power is decreasing. The actual curve of power seemed to be quite similar to this kind of separation. Inserting a condenser into a circuit in each different time zone led to maximize power factor of the transformer. The compensating condenser's on/off time is controlled by hysteresis circuit utilizing op amp and power factor of the transformer was improved from 0.945 to 0.999. As a result, the average of current reduction was 2.53A per hour of transformer.

In this paper, the electrical characteristics of Insulating paper, for pole transformers, subjected to accelerated ageing were observed and the results were compared with those of virgin insulating paper. For the experiment, insulating materials for pole transformers were enclosed together in an oil bath and thermally aged under the real pole transformer operating conditions. After the accelerated ageing of the insulating materials, the dielectrics were measured and compared with the results of the virgin ones.
