Abstract
Dielectric response measurement is widely used to characterize oil/oil-impregnated pressboards in order to evaluate the condition of transformer insulation. Insulation systems with oil can exhibit voltage dependence at low frequencies. This is due to the limited number of mobile charges in the liquid, rather than to the dielectric relaxation processes that may, in some cases, be of more interest to study. This work investigates the voltage-dependent properties of oil/oil-impregnated pressboards under ac voltages with regard to the complex permittivities. Frequency-domain spectroscopy (FDS) measurements are made with a dc voltage added to the ac voltage stimulus. Considered influences are the voltage amplitudes and polarity as well as the dependence on temperature. Properties of the space-charge polarization in the oil and oil-impregnated pressboard are calculated and discussed based on the dc-biased measurements. It is seen that using the dc bias in the FDS measurements of oil/oil-impregnated pressboard can significantly decrease the voltage dependence of the results that are caused by ion drift and consequent depletion of ions from the bulk liquid. Based on the dc-biased measurements, the complex permittivity due to the linear and nonlinear polarization can be separated.
