UV-Vis spectra and moisture content of retrofilled aged mineral oil with synthetic ester
Retrofilling aged mineral oil (AMO) with ester oils is now being explored as an alternative option for the extension of transformer life. In transformer retrofilling, there is up to 10 % of aged mineral oil will be mixed with new oil. It is anticipated that the dielectric properties of the ester oil...

Retrofilling aged mineral oil (AMO) with ester oils is now being explored as an alternative option for the extension of transformer life. In transformer retrofilling, there is up to 10 % of aged mineral oil will be mixed with new oil. It is anticipated that the dielectric properties of the ester oil will be affected when the oils are mixed together. In this paper, synthetic ester (SE) oil was investigated in terms of its physicochemical properties after being mixed with various proportions of aged mineral oil. An accelerated thermal aging of mineral oil has been firstly prepared prior to the retrofilling with SE oil. The mineral oil was aged in a vacuum oven at 130 °C for 150 hours. There are three different proportions, i.e. 3 %, 5 % and 7 % were selected for use in the retrofilling process.
