Popis: The article presents an oil moistening method, identical to the oil moistening in power transformers. Moistening took place through the migration of moisture from the moistened pressboard to the brand new oil. The AC electrical parameters (admittance, phase shift angle, permittivity, loss tangent and conductivity) of the brand new and moistened insulating oil were tested. All measured parameters were found to be affected by the oil moistening. The greatest changes were observed in the loss tangent and conductivity. Moisturization increases the value of tanδ at a frequency of 10−4 Hz from about 20 to about 70. With an increase in frequency to about 400–1000 Hz, a minimum is observed, the position of which depends on the temperature. Its value for moistened oil is about six times lower than for brand new oil. This moisturizing increased the activation energy of the conductivity from 0.466 ± 0.0265 eV to 0.890 ± 0.0115 eV. This is likely due to the acceleration of water molecules diffusion from the pressboard into the oil with increasing temperatures. The observed changes in the oil parameters caused by moistening should be taken into account while analyzing the power transformers insulation condition using the FDS method.
