Fluids for electrotechnical applications - Unused mineral insulating oils for transformers and switchgear

Covers specifications and test methods for unused mineral insulating oils. It applies to oil delivered to the agreed point and time of delivery, intended for use in transformers, switchgear and similar electrical equipment in which oil is required as an insulant and for heat transfer. These oils are obtained by distillation and refining of crude petroleum. Oils with and without additives are both within the scope of this standard. This standard is applicable only to unused mineral insulating oils. Reclaimed oils are beyond the scope of this standard. This standard does not apply to mineral oils used as impregnants in cables or capacitors. NOTE Mineral insulating oils complying with the requirements of this standard, of the same class and containing no additives (see 3.4), are considered to be compatible with one another and can be mixed in any proportion. This does not apply to oils containing additives. Where the user wishes to mix such oils, a check is recommended to be made to ensure that the mixture meets the requirements of this standard. Main changes with regard to previous edition include: the three classes of previous edition have been replaced by only two: transformer oil and low temperature switchgear oil, but a new concept, the lowest cold start energizing temperature, has been included; new properties have been added (i.e. charging tendency); values for properties have been revised.

Flüssigkeiten für elektrotechnische Anwendungen - Neue Isolieröle für Transformatoren und Schaltgeräte

Fluides pour applications électrotechniques - Huiles minérales isolantes neuves pour transformateurs et appareillages de connexion

Concerne les spécifications et méthodes d'essais des huiles minérales isolantes neuves. Elle s'applique à l'huile livrée en lieu et temps convenus, destinée à l'utilisation dans les transformateurs, interrupteurs et matériels électriques semblables où l'huile est nécessaire comme fluide isolant et caloporteur. Ces huiles proviennent de la distillation et du raffinage de pétrole brut. Cette norme s'applique aux huiles avec ou sans additifs. Cette norme ne s'applique qu'aux huiles minérales isolantes neuves. Les huiles régénérées sont hors du champ de cette norme. Cette norme ne concerne pas les huiles minérales utilisées pour imprégner les câbles ou les condensateurs. NOTE Les huiles minérales isolantes satisfaisant aux exigences de cette norme, de même classe et sans additifs (voir 3.4), sont considérées comme mutuellement compatibles et miscibles en toute proportion. Cela ne s'applique pas aux huiles additivées. Lorsque l'utilisateur souhaite mélanger de telles huiles, une vérification est recommandée pour s'assurer de la conformité du mélange à cette norme. Les principales modifications par rapport à l'édition précédente concernent les trois classes qui ont été remplacées par deux classes seulement: huile pour transformateur et huile pour appareillage de connexion basse température. Un nouveau concept, la température minimale de démarrage en puissance, a été introduit; de nouvelles propriétés ont été ajoutées (par exemple la tendance à la charge); et les valeurs concernant les propriétés ont été révisées.
