Condition monitoring through oil analysis is key to maximising the lifetime, reliability and availability of transformer assets. Oil analysis provides critical information about the condition and remaining lifetime of the transformer oil and insulating paper as well as an early warning of internal transformer problems.

Recognising this, T.E.Laboratories (TelLab) has teamed up with ENGIE Laborelec to offer this training

Delivered on  Thursday 26 May 2022) this Transformer Oil Analysis Training Course will enable you to:

– Define and implement a programme of oil analysis to monitor the condition of transformers.

– Understand and interpret oil analysis reports and implement maintenance recommendations.

Content of the training

The morning session provides answers to the following aspects of transformer condition assessment:

– Why perform transformer oil analyses?

– What are the main oil and paper degradation mechanisms?

– Which analyses apply to which types of transformers?

– Why perform different kind of analyses at different frequency?

– What is the best frequency for conducting the analyses?

– How should the test results be interpreted: trending, comparison with international standards, etc?

– How can the results be used to create and implement a maintenance action plan?

The afternoon session brings together the subjects covered with a visit to TelLab’s transformer oil analysis laboratory, introducing key pieces of equipment and staff members. In addition, we will work through a number of case studies to highlight the interpretation of results and formulation of recommendations.

TelLab is an Engineers Ireland approved training provider, and this course qualifies for over 7 CPD hours.
