Synopsis

As the power generation industry continues to embrace the unique benefits of natural ester dielectric fluid, there is also growing interest in understanding how dissolved gas analysis (DGA) is applicable for natural ester transformers.

This webinar therefore seeks to examine the key aspects on the interpretation of DGA results from in-service natural ester fluid. In particular, the commonly used analysis methods for transformer condition assessment and fault identification will be reviewed in consideration of their relevance and applicability to natural ester fluid. Also, the robustness of using DGA results as condition monitoring criteria for transformers will be discussed in the context of the variability of the threshold values of the various key gases.
