Description

IEEE PC57.100 – IEEE Draft Standard Test Procedure for the Thermal Evaluation of Insulation Systems for Liquid-Immersed Distribution, Power and Regulating Transformers

Revision Standard – Active – Draft.A series of test procedures to provide a uniform methods for investigating the effects of operating temperature on the life expectancy of liquid-immersed transformers or insulation systems is provided. The test procedures are intended to provide data for the selection of a limiting hottest-spot temperature for rating purposes, provide data which may serve as the basis for a guide for loading, and permit the comparative evaluation of a proposed insulation system with reference to a system that has proven to be acceptable in service.
