Understanding Moisture Dynamics in Power Transformers

Power Generation and Transmission

Transformers are among the most expensive assets in a power transmission network representing on average 60% of substation capital costs. With an increasing emphasis on predictive maintenance practices to extend the life of these assets, there’s no shortage of diagnostic measurements and tools available to help provide a clearer picture of the overall health of a transformer.

While the need to measure moisture in power transformers has been well documented and is universally accepted, the understanding of how moisture moves within a transformer under various conditions is less understood.
