Dielectric oil breakdown voltage refers to the maximum voltage that an insulating oil can withstand before it experiences a breakdown, resulting in the formation of a conductive path through the oil. This property is crucial for ensuring the reliability and safety of electrical equipment that uses insulating oils, such as transformers and switchgear, as it indicates the oil’s capacity to act as an insulator under high voltage conditions. Globecore offers advanced testers that accurately measure the dielectric oil breakdown voltage, providing essential data for diagnosing the condition of the oil and ensuring optimal performance of electrical systems. By regularly testing this parameter, businesses can prevent equipment failures, extend operational life, and maintain efficiency in their operations.
