Popis: It is a general belief that mineral oil filled power transformers are designed to operate reliably for up to 40 years. However, there are many transformers installed worldwide operating well beyond such age. Therefore, transformer end-of-life should not be simply indicated by the designed 40 years, but determined by the insulation system end-of-life.
