No, dry-type transformers are not filled with oil. Instead, they use air or other gases for cooling and insulation. The design of dry-type transformers eliminates the need for liquid insulation, making them safer for environments where fire risk is a concern. Overheating is managed through air circulation or other cooling methods, not by using oil.
