The oil BDV test procedure typically involves several key steps to ensure accurate measurement of the breakdown voltage of transformer oil. First, the transformer oil sample should be collected in a clean, dry container to avoid contamination. The sample is then placed in a BDV tester, which consists of two electrodes separated by a specified gap in a controlled environment to prevent external interference. The tester applies a gradually increasing voltage until it reaches the point of breakdown, which is when the oil becomes conductive. The breakdown voltage is recorded in kilovolts (kV). It’s essential to follow proper safety protocols during this procedure, including conducting the test in a well-ventilated area and using appropriate personal protective equipment. After testing, the results can be compared against established standards to evaluate the oil’s insulation properties. Globecore offers reliable oil BDV testers that provide precise results and are designed for easy operation and maintenance, ensuring the longevity and effectiveness of your transformer oil assessments.
