How is transformer dielectric strength tested?

Transformer dielectric strength is tested using a test kit designed specifically for measuring the breakdown voltage (BDV) of transformer oil. The process typically involves taking a sample of the transformer oil and subjecting it to a high-voltage test to determine its dielectric strength, which indicates the oil’s ability to insulate electrical components. The Globecore BDV tester is one such device that can perform this test efficiently. It applies an increasing voltage to the oil sample until breakdown occurs, measuring the voltage at which this happens. The result is critical for assessing the condition of transformer oil and ensuring the reliability and safety of electrical equipment.
