10、nificance and Use3.1 The dielectric breakdown voltage of an insulating liquidis of importance as a measure of the liquids ability towithstand electric stress without failure. The dielectric break-down voltage serves to indicate the presence of contaminatingagents such as water, dirt, cellulosic fibe

11、rs, or conductingparticles in the liquid, one or more of which may be present insignificant concentrations when low breakdown voltages areobtained. However, a high dielectric breakdown voltage doesnot necessarily indicate the absence of all contaminants; it maymerely indicate that the concentrations

12、 of contaminants that arepresent in the liquid between the electrodes are not largeenough to deleteriously affect the average breakdown voltageof the liquid when tested by this test method (see AppendixX1.)1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D27 onElectrical Insulating Liqu

Forfield breakdown results to be comparable to laboratory

16、results,all criteria including room temperature (20 to 30C) must bemet.4. Electrical Apparatus4.1 In addition to this section, use IEEE Standard 4 todetermine other requirements necesary for conducting testmeasurements, and maintaining error limits using alternatingvoltages. Procedures to ensure acc

17、uracy should follow therequirements of IEEE Standard 4. Calibration(s) shall betraceable to national standards and calibration should beverified annually or more often to ensure accuracy require-ments. IEEE Standard 4 is required during the manufacturingof the test apparatus and utilized during cali

18、bration of theequipment.4.1.1 Test VoltageThe test voltage shall be an alternatingvoltage having a frequency in the range from 45 to 65 Hz,normally referred to as power-frequency voltage. The voltagewave shape should approximate a sinusoid with both halfcycles closely alike, and it should have a rat

19、io of peak-to-rmsvalues equal to the square root of 2 within 65%.4.1.2 Generation of the Test VoltageThe test voltage isgenerally supplied by a transformer or resonant circuit. Thevoltage in the test circuit should be stable enough to beunaffected by varying current flowing in the capacitive andresi

20、stive paths of the test circuit. Non-disruptive discharges inthe test circuit should not reduce the test voltage to such anextent, and for such a time, that the disruptive discharge(breakdown) voltage of the test specimen is significantlyaffected. In the case of a transformer, the short-circuit curr

21、entdelivered by the transformer should be sufficient to maintainthe test voltage within 3 % during transient current pulses ordischarges, and a short circuit current of 0.1 A may suffice.4.1.3 Disruptive Voltage MeasurementDesign the mea-surement circuit so the voltage recorded at the breakdown isth

22、e maximum voltage across the test specimen immediatelyprior to the disruptive breakdown, with an error no greater than3%.4.2 Circuit-Interrupting EquipmentDesign the circuitused to interrupt the disruptive discharge through the specimento operate when the voltage across the specimen has collapsedto

23、less than 100 V. It is recommended that the circuit designlimit the disruptive current duration and magnitude to lowvalues that will minimize damage to the electrodes and limitformation of non-soluble materials resulting from the break-down, but consistent with the requirements of 4.1.2, but in noca

24、se should the short-circuit current exceed 1 mA/kV ofapplied voltage.4.3 Votage Control EquipmentUse a rate of voltage rise of0.5 kV/s. The tolerance of the rate of rise should be 5 % for anynew equipment manufactured after the year 2000. Automaticequipment should be used to control the voltage rate

25、 of risebecause of the difficulty of maintaining a uniform voltage risemanually. The equipment should produce a straight-linevoltage-time curve over the operating range of the equipment.Calibrate and label automatic controls in terms of rate-of-rise.4.4 Measuring SystemsThe voltage shall be measured

26、 bya method that fufills the requirements of IEEE Standard No. 4,giving rms values.4.5 Connect the electrode such that the voltage measuredfrom each electrode with respect to ground during the test isequal within 5 %.4.6 AccuracyThe combined accuracy of the voltmeter andvoltage divider circuit shall

27、 be such that measurement errordoes not exceed 3 % at the rate-of-voltage rise specified in 4.3.For equipment manufactured prior to 1995 the maximumallowable error is 5 %.5. Electrodes5.1 The electrodes shall be polished brass spherically-capped electrodes of the VDE (Verband Deutscher Elektrotech-n

28、iker, Specification 0370) type having the dimensions shownin Fig. 1 61 %, mounted with axes horizontal and coincidentwithin 61 mm.6. Test Cell6.1 Construct the test cell as a cube. The test cell shall bedesigned to permit easy removal of the electrodes for cleaningand polishing, verification that th

29、e shape is within the specifiedtolerance, and to permit easy adjustment of the gap spacing.The vector sum of the resistive and capacitive current of thecup, when filled with oil meeting the requirements of Specifi-cation D 3487, shall be less than 200 A at 20 kV, at powerfrequency. A test cell havin

30、g a capacity of 0.95 L 65 %, hasbeen found to be satisfactory for an electrode spacing of 2 mm.A cell having a capacity of 0.5 L 65 % has been found to besatisfactory for an electrode spacing of 1 mm. Mount theelectrodes rigidly from opposite sides with the spacing axiallycentered within 61 mm. Clea

31、rance from the electrodes to allsides, bottom, cover or baffle, and any part of the stirringdevice is at least 12.7 mm (12 in.). Provide the test cell with aFIG. 1 VDE ElectrodeD1816042motor-driven two-bladed impeller and drive shaft, constructedof a material having high dielectric strength. The two

32、-bladedimpeller is 35 mm (138 in.) 65 % between the blade extremi-ties, having a pitch of 40 mm (1.57 in.) 65 % (blade angle oftwenty degrees (20) 6 5 %), operating at a speed between 200and 300 rpm. The impeller, located below the lower edge of theelectrodes, rotates in such a direction that the re

33、sulting liquidflow is directed downward against the bottom of the test cell.Construct the test cell of a material of high dielectric strength,that is not soluble in or attacked by any of the cleaning or testliquids used, and is nonabsorbent to moisture and the cleaningand test liquids. So that the b

34、reakdown may be observed,transparent materials are desirable, but not essential. In order topreclude stirring air with the sample, provide the cell with acover or baffle that will effectively prevent air from contactingthe circulating liquid.7. Adjustment and Care of Electrodes and Test Cell7.1 Elec

35、trode SpacingWith the electrodes firmly lockedin position, check the electrodes with a standard round gage for2 6 0.03-mm (0.079-in.) spacing. If a dielectric breakdowndoes not occur during any of the consecutive breakdown testsusing the 2 mm spacing or the sample is not adequate for the2 mm spacing

36、 test cell a 1 6 0.03-mm (0.039-in.) spacingshould be used to determine the breakdown voltage and thespacing reported. Flat “go” and “no-go” gages may be substi-tuted having thicknesses of the specified value 60.03 mm forelectrode spacing of 1 or 2 mm. If it is necessary to readjust theelectrodes, l

37、ock the electrodes and check the spacing. Forreferee tests or tests that will be used for close comparisons, thelaboratories shall agree in advance on the spacing for the testsand ensure that all other requirements of this test method aremet. The spacing agreed upon shall be measured with the gageth

38、at corresponds exactly to the selected spacing within toler-ance stated above for the gage.7.2 CleaningWipe the electrodes and cell clean with dry,lint-free tissue paper, or a clean dry chamois. It is important toavoid touching the electrodes or the cleaned gage with thefingers or with portions of t

39、he tissue paper or chamois that havebeen in contact with the hands. After adjustment of the spacing,rinse the cell with a dry hydrocarbon solvent, such as kerosineor solvents of Specification D 235. Do not use a low boilingpoint solvent, as its rapid evaporation may cool the cell,causing moisture co

40、ndensation. If this occurs, before using,warm the cell to evaporate the moisture. Avoid touching theelectrodes or the inside of the cell after cleaning. Afterthorough cleaning, flush the cell with new oil of the type to betested that is filtered through a 5-micron filter and containingless than 25 p

41、pm moisture. Conduct a voltage breakdown teston a specimen of this oil in the manner specified in this testmethod. If the breakdown voltage is in the expected range forthis conditioned oil, the cell is considered properly prepared fortesting other samples. A lower than anticipated value isconsidered

42、 as evidence of cell contamination; then repeat thecleaning and the breakdown test with clean dry oil.7.3 Daily UseAt the beginning of each days testing, theelectrodes shall be examined for pitting and carbon accumula-tion, and the spacing checked. If the test of any sample is belowthe breakdown val

43、ue being used by the operator as a minimumsatisfactory value, drain the cell and flush the cell with new oilof the type to be tested that is filtered through a 5-micron filterand containing less than 25 ppm moisture before testing thenext specimen. When not in use, keep the cell filled with oilthat

44、meets the requirements of Specification D 3487 of the typenormally tested. Alternatively, the cell may be stored empty ina dust-free cabinet. At the beginning of each days testing, cleanaccording to 7.2.7.4 Polishing of ElectrodesWhen electrodes show slightetching, scratching, pitting, or carbon acc

45、umulation, theyshould be removed from the test cup and polished by buffingwith jewelers rouge using a soft cloth or soft buffing wheel.The residue from the buffing should be removed by repeatedwiping with lint-free tissue paper saturated with a suitablesolvent, followed by solvent rinsing or ultraso

46、nic cleaning.After careful inspection, any electrodes from which pittingcannot be removed by light buffing should be discarded, asmore refinishing would destroy the electrode contour anddimensions shown in Fig. 1. Reinstall the electrodes in the testcup and adjust spacing and clean in accordance wit

47、h 7.1 and7.2.8. Sampling8.1 Obtain a sample of the oil to be tested using appropriateASTM sampling apparatus. Oil sampling procedures are de-tailed in Practice D 923. Particular reference should be made tothe general precaution statement of this test method. Thesample shall be taken in a dry, clean,

48、 non-permeable bottle.Tightly seal and shield from light until ready to be tested.Plastic bottles are permeable and moisture content of thesample may change resulting in a measurable difference whencompared to samples collected in non-permeable containers.9. Test Procedure9.1 Allow the sample and th

49、e test cup to equilibrate toambient temperature. Laboratory and referee tests shall beconducted at room temperature (20 to 30C).9.2 To ensure a homogenous sample, gently invert and swirlthe sample container several times. Rapid agitation is undesir-able, since an excessive amount of air may be introduced intothe liquid. Within 1 min after agitation, use a small portion ofthe sample to rinse the test cell. Drain the rinse. Within 30 s ofthe rinse, fill the cell slowly with the remaining portion of thesample. The cell is full when closing the cover or baffle allo
