Transformer Oil

Transformer oil is a specialized insulating oil used in electrical transformers to prevent overheating and electrical faults. It cools the transformer components by transferring heat away and also insulates the internal parts from electrical discharges. The oil's properties help maintain stable voltage levels and ensure reliable transformer operation. Typically, it is a highly refined mineral oil or synthetic fluid that resists aging, oxidation, and moisture absorption. Regular testing and maintenance of transformer oil are essential to detect contamination or degradation, ensuring the longevity and safety of the electrical equipment.
