10、estMethods D 150 for detailed discussion of terms.4. Significance and Use4.1 Dissipation Factor (or Power Factor)This is a mea-sure of the dielectric losses in an electrical insulating liquidwhen used in an alternating electric field and of the energydissipated as heat. A low dissipation factor or p

11、ower factorindicates low ac dielectric losses. Dissipation factor or powerfactor may be useful as a means of quality control, and as anindication of changes in quality resulting from contaminationand deterioration in service or as a result of handling.4.1.1 The loss characteristic is commonly measur

12、ed interms of dissipation factor (tangent of the loss angle) or ofpower factor (sine of the loss angle) and may be expressed asa decimal value or as a percentage. For decimal values up to0.05, dissipation factor and power factor values are equal toeach other within about one part in one thousand. In

13、 general,since the dissipation factor or power factor of insulating oils ingood condition have decimal values below 0.005, the twomeasurements (terms) may be considered interchangeable.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D27 onElectrical Insulating Liquids and Gases and is

17、centage. For example:D or PF at 25C 5 0.002 or 0.2% (2)4.2 Relative Permittivity (Dielectric Constant)Insulatingliquids are used in general either to insulate components of anelectrical network from each other and from ground, alone orin combination with solid insulating materials, or to function as

18、the dielectric of a capacitor. For the first use, a low value ofrelative permittivity is often desirable in order to have thecapacitance be as small as possible, consistent with acceptablechemical and heat transfer properties. However, an intermedi-ate value of relative permittivity may sometimes be

19、 advanta-geous in achieving a better voltage distribution of a-c electricfields between the liquid and solid insulating materials withwhich the liquid may be in series. When used as the dielectricin a capacitor, it is desirable to have a higher value of relativepermittivity so the physical size of t

20、he capacitor may be assmall as possible.4.3 Theory relating to dielectric measurement techniquesand to sources of dielectric loss is given in Test MethodsD 150.5. Sampling5.1 Sample electrical insulating liquids in accordance withPractices D 923. Samples to be subjected to this test shouldpreferably

21、 be obtained through a closed system. If exposed toatmospheric conditions, it is preferable to take the samplewhen the relative humidity is 50 % or less. If it is not feasible,the length of time the sample is exposed to atmosphericconditions must be kept to a minimum.5.2 Some liquids, in certain app

22、lications, require specialhandling and processes in the sampling, and these will befound in the governing procedures. Consult such proceduresbefore samples are taken.5.3 The quantity of sample taken for this test shall besufficient for at least three separate determinations of losscharacteristics an

23、d relative permittivity.5.4 The loss characteristic measurement (dissipation factoror power factor) may be affected by contamination introducedduring sampling and subsequent handling.PROCEDURE FOR MAKING REFEREE TESTS6. Apparatus6.1 Measuring equipment used in these procedures shall bein accordance

24、with Test Methods D 150.6.2 Use only a three-terminal cell for these tests.6.3 The design of test cells that conform to the generalrequirements given in theAnnex are considered suitable for usein making these tests.6.4 Forced-Draft Oven:6.4.1 When the tests are to be made above room tempera-ture, a

25、suitable forced-draft, thermostatically controlled ovenshall be used as the test chamber. The oven must be capable ofmeeting the temperature requirements set out in Section 11. Fortests at room temperature the unheated oven can be conve-niently used as the test chamber.6.4.2 Provide the test chamber

26、 with an opening in the wallthrough which two lengths of TFE-fluorocarbon-insulated (orsimilar) shielded cable pass to make electrical connection fromthe measuring equipment and high-voltage transformer, respec-tively, to the test cell. Use a perforated ceramic plate or disk toinsulate the test cell

27、 from the metal flooring of the oven if theflooring is not insulated from the oven. Provide a safetyinterlock on the door of the oven so that the electrical circuitsupplying voltage to the test cell will be broken when the ovendoor is opened.6.4.3 A cross-sectional view of the test chamber with athr

28、ee-electrode test cell in place and with test cables connectedis shown in Fig. 1.6.5 Automatic Thermo-Regulator Cell:6.5.1 When tests are to be made above room temperaturebut below the flash point, an automatic thermo-regulator cellcan be used as long as it provides uniform heating of the testcell.6

29、.5.2 The automatic thermo-regulator cell must be able toprovide rapid, controlled rate of temperature rise, and be ableto maintain a liquid temperature constant to within 61C.7. Calibration7.1 Calibration of test instruments shall be traceable tonational standards.7.2 Verify the calibration at least

30、 annually using referencedevices that are traceable to national standards.7.3 Refer to Practice D 2865 and IEEE Standard 4 forguidelines on calibrating test equipment.8. Test Temperature8.1 The temperature at which a referee test is made shall bemutually agreed upon between the purchaser and the sel

31、ler.Measurements are made at many different temperatures. Foracceptance tests, it is generally made at a temperature of100C, while for routine testing it is usually made at 25, 85 or100C. In some research investigations, tests may be made atconsiderably higher temperatures while in other cases, part

32、icu-larly for tests on cable oils in service, tests may be made overa range of temperatures.9. Test Voltage9.1 The average stress to which the specimen is subjectedshall not be less than 200 V/mm (5 V/mil) (rms). Tests at higherstresses are desirable but shall not reach such values thatelectrical di

33、scharges across the cell insulating surfaces occur orthat internal ionization of the specimen may be expected.Stress ranges in normal usage for referee tests are 200 to 1200V/mm (5 to 30 V/mil) (rms).9.2 Because the ac loss characteristics can vary with voltagestress, for reference purposes it is de

34、sirable to make themeasurements at a specific value of voltage stress within thelimits in 9.1.9.3 Referee tests should be carried out in the frequencyrange 4565 Hz.D92408210. Cleaning Test Cell10.1 The cleanliness of the test cell is of paramount impor-tance when measuring loss characteristics becau

35、se of theinherent susceptibility of most insulating liquids to contami-nating influences of the most minute nature. For this reason,clean and dry the cell immediately prior to making the test, andstrictly observe the procedures and precautions outlined in 10.2to 10.5.10.2 Dismantle the cell complete

36、ly and wash all the com-ponent parts thoroughly with a technical grade of a suitablesolvent (such as acetone, pentane, petroleum ether, or heptane).Wash the component parts with a mild abrasive soap ordetergent. Take care not to lay the electrodes on any surface.Rinse all parts thoroughly with hot t

37、ap water, then with cold tapwater, followed by several rinses with distilled water. Takeextreme care during the washing and rinsing of some test cellsto prevent any moisture from entering the thermometer well inthe inner electrode.As a precaution against this eventuality, usea suitable stopper to pl

38、ug this opening prior to starting thecleaning operation.10.3 After the surfaces of the measuring, guard, and highvoltage electrodes have been washed, do not touch thesesurfaces during the rinsing or any subsequent operation.10.4 Place the component parts of the test cell in an ovenmaintained at 110C

39、 for a period of not less than 60 min. Donot dry test cells made of Monel at this elevated temperaturefor more than 90 min as oxidation will take place causingerroneous results. Take care that the surfaces on which thecomponent parts of the cell are placed in the oven are clean.10.5 At the expiratio

40、n of the drying period, assemble thecell using clean cotton gloves as protection for the hands andto prevent contamination from skin oils and salt.11. Preparation of Specimen and Filling Test Cell11.1 Store the sample in its original sealed container,shielded from light. Some liquids, such as oils o

41、f petroleumorigin, undergo changes when exposed to sunlight. Allow thesealed container to stand undisturbed in the room in which thetest is to be made for a sufficient period of time to permit thesample to attain room temperature before it is opened.11.2 When insulating liquids are heated to elevate

42、d tem-peratures, some of their characteristics undergo a change withtime and the change, even though of the minutest nature, maybe reflected in the loss measurement. It is therefore desirablethat the elapsed time necessary for the test specimen to attaintemperature equilibrium with the test cell be

43、held to a mini-mum. For optimum procedure do not exceed 20 min for thistime. It is essential, therefore, that the procedures outlinedbelow be closely followed.11.3 Forced-Draft Oven:11.3.1 In order that representative test specimens may beobtained, gently tilt or invert the sample container and swir

44、l theliquid several times. Immediately after mixing the sample, poura quantity of liquid sufficient for four fillings of the test cellinto a chemically clean dry beaker and heat on a hot plate to atemperature 2C below the desired test temperature. Stir thefluid frequently during heating.11.3.2 Remov

45、e the cell from the test chamber, lift out theinner electrode, but do not rest it on any surface, and fill the cellwith a portion of the heated specimen. Replace the beaker withthe remainder of the heated sample on the hot plate. Insert theinner electrode and rinse the electrodes by twice raising an

46、dlowering the inner electrode. Remove the inner electrode andhold it suspended in air; then decant the rinsing liquid andimmediately fill the cell from the remainder of the heatedspecimen. Replace the inner electrode.FIG. 1 Test Set-Up for Dissipation Factor Measurements at Elevated Temperatures Usi

48、d formeasuring the temperature of the inner electrode, but extremecaution shall be exercised that these wires do not come incontact with the high-voltage lead and do not pick up strayemfs). Immediately return the filled cell to the test chamber(adjusted to a temperature above the desired test temper

49、ature)and make the necessary electrical connections to the cell.11.3.4 Perform the operations described in 11.3.2 and 11.3.3as rapidly as possible.11.4 Automatic Thermo-Regulator Cell:11.4.1 Gently swirl or invert the sample container to obtaina representative test specimen.11.4.2 Fill the test cell and flush to rinse thoroughly both theinner and outer electrodes with a portion of the sample. Decantthe rinsing liquid and immediately fill the cell with a newaliquot of sample.11.4.3 Replace inner electrode and make all necessaryelectrical connections to the cell. On s
