Common Faults and Diagnostic Technologies of Oil-immersed Distribution Transformers
1.Common Faults and Diagnostic Measures1.1 Transformer Oil Leakage1.1.1 Oil Leakage from Tank Weld SeamsFor oil leakage at flat joints, direct welding is applicable. For leakage at corners or joints reinforced with stiffeners, the exact leakage point is often difficult to locate, and re-leakage may occur after welding due to internal stress. For such cases, repair welding with an added iron plate is recommended: for two-surface joints, the iron plate can be cut into a spindle shape for welding;
