Insulating oil is an important insulating material widely used in various electrical equipment. It can perform good insulation performance under high voltage conditions, thereby ensuring the normal operation and safety of the equipment. The main uses of insulating oil include: as an insulating medium for excitation transformers, transformers, switchgear and cables; protecting power facilities from external influences; and helping electrical equipment to perform stable performance. When using and storing insulating oil, attention should be paid to quality and safety issues to ensure its stability and long-term reliability. The use of insulating oil involves not only the safety of power equipment operation, but also the stability and sustainable development of the entire industrial production.
Cooling effect: Electrical equipment generates heat during operation, and insulating oil absorbs and dissipates heat through natural circulation or forced circulation to prevent equipment from being damaged by overheating. In transformers, insulating oil helps dissipate heat and maintain a stable operating temperature of the equipment.
Arc extinguishing effect: When an arc is generated, the insulating oil will decompose under heat to produce a large amount of hydrogen, forming a high-pressure environment, thereby extinguishing the arc in time to ensure the safe operation of equipment and systems.
Protective effect: As the insulating medium of the motor, insulating oil effectively prevents electrical breakdown and ensures the safe operation of motors and generators. At the same time, it prevents oxygen and moisture in the air from entering the motor and preventing the insulation material from oxidizing and cracking.
