DL/T 1836-2018 in English

This standard provides a method for determining the compatibility between mineral insulating oils and transformer materials. It outlines procedures for assessing the interaction between the oil and materials used in transformers, ensuring that they can function effectively under operational conditions. The method includes steps for sample preparation, testing conditions, and evaluation criteria. It is applicable to various types of transformer materials and mineral insulating oils used in power systems. The standard aims to support the selection and use of compatible materials in transformer design and maintenance. It covers aspects such as physical and chemical changes that may occur during the interaction between the oil and materials. The procedures described are intended to be repeatable and reproducible, facilitating consistent results across different testing environments. This standard is part of a series of guidelines related to transformer materials and insulating oils in the energy sector.
