Abstract
Many failures in large forced-oil-cooled power transformers have been specifically attributed to static electrification, due to the flow of insulating oil. For this reason detailed investigations of some of the important parameters, such as flow rate, moisture content, temperature, extent of aging, and presence of copper, affecting the charging tendency of the oil have been carried out by employing a ministatic tester and a spinning disk system with paraffinic based oil. It is observed that the aforementioned parameters significantly influence the charging tendency of the oil
