Advantages and Disadvantages of Oil-Immersed Transformers

Advantages

Transformer oil offers excellent insulation and thermal conductivity properties, and is also cost-effective.

2. Solves large capacity transformer heat dissipation issues and high voltage insulation problems.

Flaw

Transformer oil is flammable and may ignite or explode when exposed to flames.

Transformer oil is harmful to humans.

3. Transformer oil requires regular inspection.

4. Oil-immersed transformers exhibit poor sealing performance and are prone to aging, leading to severe oil leakage at the operating site. This not only affects the safe operation of the equipment but also impacts the environment.

5. Oil-immersed transformers have a low insulation grade; they are designed and manufactured according to Grade A insulation standards.
