1、Designation: D 1807 00 (Reapproved 2005)Standard Test Methods forRefractive Index and Specific Optical Dispersion ofElectrical Insulating Liquids1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 1807; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in

2、 the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 These test methods cover the determination of therefractive index and the specific

3、 optical dispersion of electricalinsulating liquids such as are used in capacitors, transformers,circuit breakers, and oil-filled cables.1.2 Two test methods are described, a routine method and amore precise referee method. Both methods are applicable totransparent, light-colored, insulating liquids

4、.1.2.1 The routine method is used to determine refractiveindex and specific optical dispersion as described in these testmethods.1.2.2 The referee method is used when a test of highaccuracy is desired. These methods are described in TestMethod D 1218. Specific optical dispersion is calculated bydivi

Significance and Use4.1 Refractive IndexThe refractive index of an insulating

10、liquid varies with its composition and with the nature andamount of contaminants held in solution. Changes of refractiveindex with time and service may form a basis for estimatingany change in composition or the degree of containmentacquired in service. For electrical insulating mineral oils, thewav

For convenience,the specific dispersion value is multiplied by 104. For electri-cal insulating mineral oi

Procedure for Routine Method6.1 Periodically check the adjustment of the refractometerwith the reference standard supplied with the instrument.6.2 Clean the instrument in accordance with the instructionsfurnished by the apparatus manufacturer before testing eachspecimen. If no s

Do not dry the prismfaces by rubbing with dry cotton. Allow 4 to 5 min fortemperature equilibration before applying the test specimen tothe prism.6.3 Adj

20、ust the bath thermostat to 25.0C, reading thistemperature on the refractometer thermometer on the dischargeside. Continue the flow of water long enough before testing toensure that a constant temperature has been reached. If only thespecific optical dispersion is desired, the measurements may bemade
