8.3 Limit values for dielectric strength and water content of
insulating fluids
The following tables specify the limit values for dielectric strength (measured
in accordance with IEC 60156) and water content (measured in accordance
with IEC 60814) of insulating fluids for the VACUTAP
®
on-load tap-changer.
The values have been determined based on IEC 60422, IEC 61203 and
IEEE C57.147.
