IEC 62961:2018 establishes the measurement of the interfacial tension between insulating liquid and water by means of the Du Noüy ring method close to equilibrium conditions. In order to obtain a value that provides a realistic expression of the real interfacial tension, a measurement after a surface age of approximately 180 s is recorded.

This document describes a test method for evaluating the oxidation stability of insulating
liquids in the delivered state under accelerated conditions regardless of whether or not
antioxidant additives are present. The duration of the test can be different depending on the
insulating liquid type and is defined in the corresponding standards (e.g. in IEC 60296,
IEC 61099, IEC 62770). The method can be used for measuring the induction period, the test
being continued until the volatile acidit...view more

IEC TR 62697-3:2018(E) specifies a test method for the quantitative determination of elemental sulfur in used and unused insulating liquids over a 2 mg kg–1 to 400 mg kg–1 concentration range.

IEC TR 62697-2:2018(E) specifies a test method for the quantitative determination of total corrosive sulfur (TCS) in unused and used insulating liquids and solid matrices through the conversion of corrosive sulfur species to metal (copper, silver etc.) sulfides. The sulfides formed are quantitatively converted to sulfates; sulfates are determined through turbidity measurement or with ion chromatography.
The method is applicable with the following matrices:
a) Unused and used insulating liquids...view more
