Abstract :
An experimental study of the effect of water dimer in insulating oil on conduction phenomena is presented, and results are given. It is shown that saturated hydrocarbons do not include water dimer which combines with molecules of liquids by hydrogen bonds. The conductivity of saturated hydrocarbons is lower than that of alphatic hydrocarbons. The effect of water dimer on conductivity is larger than the conductivity of saturated hydrocarbons. The effect of water dimer on conductivity depends on the size of the molecules of the dielectric liquids
