    An oil-based transformer is a transformer that uses insulating oil as a cooling and insulating medium. The oil circulates within the transformer, dissipating heat generated by electrical components and providing insulation to prevent electrical discharges. Oil-based transformers are commonly used in high-voltage applications due to their effective thermal management and insulation properties.
