Terminology3.1 Definition:3.1.1 samplingthe obtaining of that amount of a materialwhich is adequate for making the required tests and which

18、 isrepresentative of that portion of the material from which it istaken.3.1.1.1 DiscussionIn most cases the detection of contami-nants that are not ordinarily dispersed uniformly through theliquid being sampled, such as water or solid particles, neces-sitates taking samples at specific locations whe

19、re the contami-nants are likely to be found. For a liquid having a relativedensity (specific gravity) less than one, water and some otherimpurities are most likely to be found on or near the bottom. Inthe case of a liquid having a specific gravity greater than one,some of these impurities are most l

20、ikely to be found on or nearthe surface.4. Significance and Use4.1 Accurate sampling, whether of the complete contents oronly parts thereof, is extremely important from the standpointof evaluating the quality of the liquid insulant sampled.Obviously, examination of a test specimen that, because ofca

21、reless sampling procedure or contamination in samplingequipment, is not directly representative, leads to erroneousconclusions concerning quality and in addition results in a lossof time, effort, and expense in securing, transporting, andtesting the sample.4.2 A study of gases and moisture contained

22、 in insulatingoils from transformers and other electrical power apparatus canfrequently give an early indication of abnormal behavior of theapparatus, and may indicate appropriate action be taken on theequipment before it suffers greater damage. Specific gas andmoisture content can be determined fro

23、m oil sampled for thispurpose.5. Mandatory Conditions and General Information5.1 Mandatory Conditions when Sampling Electrical Appa-ratus:5.1.1 Energized electrical apparatus being sampled musthave a positive pressure at the sampling outlet, so as not tointroduce an air bubble into the apparatus dur

24、ing the samplingprocess. Refer to 7.2.5.1.2 Do not draw samples from any energized electricalequipment with a small volume of oil, especially those thatrequire the addition of oil to maintain the electric strength ofthe insulation system. If the proper level or existing level cannot be accurately de

25、termined do not proceed.5.1.3 Maintain the insulating fluid within the electricalapparatus being sampled at a level that will not reduce theelectric strength of the insulation system.5.1.4 Do not sample electrical apparatus if only a drain plugis provided, as it would be difficult to control the flo

26、w.5.1.5 Do not draw samples from energized instrumenttransformers such as CTs and PTs.5.2 General Information:5.2.1 Take and handle samples or test specimens in such amanner as to avoid the loss or gain of properties for which theyare being tested. Some tests are greatly affected by minutetraces of

27、impurities, and it is imperative that utmost precau-tions be taken to prevent contamination when obtainingsamples. Due to the hygroscopic tendency of insulating liquids,it is important to minimize exposure to the atmosphere of thesample being taken.5.2.2 Take a sufficient quantity of liquid as a sam

28、ple tocover the requirements of the respective tests to be made. Makereference to the procedures governing these tests to ascertainthe quantity of liquid for each test specimen and the number oftest specimens required.5.2.3 When samples are to be taken the temperature of theliquid should be equal to

29、 or greater than the temperature of thesurrounding air in order to minimize the possibility of con-densed moisture from the air being absorbed by the liquidduring the sampling process, particularly in a humid atmo-sphere.5.2.4 When taking samples of liquid from large storagetanks, transformers, oil-

30、circuit breakers, gravity-fed reservoirson oil-filled cable feeders, and other electrical equipment, theelectrical equipment drain valve is usually adequate. However,when high relative humidity conditions exist and it is desired toobtain samples through a closed system, the manifold in Fig.10 is rec

31、ommended.5.3 General Information when Sampling Electrical Appara-tus:5.3.1 All non-hermetically sealed equipment, filled withinsulating liquid having a relative density (specific gravity) lessthan 1, should be provided with the sampling outlet located atthe bottom of the tank so that bottom samples

32、of the oil may beobtained.5.3.2 All non-hermetically sealed equipment, filled withinsulating liquid having a relative density (specific gravity)greater than 1, should be provided with the sampling outletlocated at the top of the tank at the 25C (77F) liquid level sothat a top sample of the liquid ma

33、y be obtained.5.3.3 When make-up liquid is added to any piece ofelectrical equipment or the liquid is filtered, allow sufficient2For referenced ASTM standards, visit the ASTM website, www.astm.org, orcontact ASTM Customer Service at serviceastm.org.

35、ot be detected because of the formation of ice. Ice is aconcern in both energized and de-energized electrical appara-tus where insulating oil-filled compartments operate at tem-peratures below freezing, such as some tap changer compart-ments and circuit breaker tanks.5.3.5 When retrieving samples fr

36、om electrical apparatus,record the apparatus temperature (C) along with the identifi-cation information as required by Section 19. Knowledge ofthe apparatus temperature (C) at the time of sampling aids inthe interpretation of results from certain tests (Refer to Appen-dix X1).5.4 General Information

37、 when Sampling Liquid-FilledTanks, Drums, Tank Trucks, Tank Cars and other SimilarContainers:5.4.1 When sampling large outdoor tanks, tank trucks, tankcars, and de-energized electrical equipment the temperature ofthe liquid to be sampled may be colder than the surroundingair. On such an occasion, de

38、termine and report the temperatureof the liquid and air as well as the relative humidity with theresults of tests. It is undesirable to collect samples that areexposed to the atmosphere when the relative humidity exceeds50 % or under conditions of rain or snow.5.4.2 Allow containers of new liquid to

39、 remain undisturbedfor at least 8 h before samples or test specimens are taken. Insome instances, such as in the case of tank cars, it is notpractical to wait this prescribed length of time, and samples forroutine tests may be taken after the liquid has remainedundisturbed for as long a period as pr

40、acticable. For refereetests, allow the full 8-h waiting period to elapse before takingsamples or test specimens. Repeat samples or test specimensfrom tank cars may be taken without waiting an additional 8 h.5.4.3 Unless otherwise specified, take samples of insulatingliquids having a relative density

41、 (specific gravity) of less than1 from the bottom of the liquid container. For drums, cans,small tanks, etc., design the sampling device so that the sampleis obtained a distance of 3 mm from the bottom of thecontainer, while for large tanks, tank trucks and tank cars, thedistance is within 13 mm of

42、the bottom.5.4.4 Unless otherwise specified, take samples of insulatingliquids having a relative density (specific gravity) of greaterthan 1 from the surface layer of the liquid.6. Description of Sampling Devices and Containers6.1 Devices suitable for withdrawing samples of liquid fromcontainers, el

43、ectrical equipment, cable feeders, and cable jointsare described below, shown in Figs. 110 and the Annex, anddiscussed in Appendix X1.6.2 Electrical Equipment Sampling Drain Valve or PortUsed for taking top or bottom samples from energized orde-energized electrical apparatus. This device is especial

44、lysuitable when collecting samples in a glass jar, metal can, orother suitable containers as described in this section.6.3 Glass BottleUsed for securing and storing the sample.Amber or clear (see Notes 1 and 2) and may be eitherglass-stoppered or fitted with screw caps having a pulp-boardliner faced

45、 with tin or aluminum foil, or with a suitableoil-resistant plastic such as polyethylene, polytetrafluoroethyl-ene (PTFE) or fluoro-elastomers. Do not use any incompatiblenatural or synthetic rubber materials. Must meet the require-ments of Section 16. (See Appendix X2.)NOTE 1While amber-colored gla

46、ss bottles are used for storingsamples as protection against light, clear glass bottles afford better visualinspection of the samples or test specimens for impurities such as waterand foreign particles. Take samples that are to be subjected to referee testsin new amber-colored containers that have b

47、een cleaned as described inSection 16.6.4 Other Bottle or Can Containers (Note 2)Used forsecuring and storing the sample. May be constructed from asuitable oil-resistant plastic such as high-density polyethylene(HDPE) (do not use for long term storage when water contentis to be determined), or metal

48、 cans such as those made fromaluminum, stainless steel, other appropriate metal, or PTFElined. Metals cans are to be constructed as fully extruded,pressed seams or welded seams. Solder seams may leave aresidue that will contaminate the sample. Screw caps andclosures must meet the requirements of 6.3

49、. (See AppendixX2.)NOTE 2It is recommended to retrieve samples for DGA and wateranalysis using only syringes or stainless steel cylinders. If bottles and cansare used, gases that are to be measured in the DGA analysis can easilyescape from these types of containers. Alternatively, environmental gasescan become entrained into the sample. Both situations can alter the resultssignificantly.6.5 Glass SyringeThe device shown in Fig. 1 must be ofa suitable size terminated with a Luer lock fitting to which isattached a three-way stopcock.
