This paper presents laboratory investigations on 5 different vegetable-based oils and their blends to examine their long-term performance vis-à-vis their dielectric properties and oxidation under thermal ageing. The vegetable-based oil samples investigated included Canola Oil, Coconut Oil, Olive Oil...
