New LinkedIn Article: The Liquid Layer: How Transformer Oil Keeps Power Flowing

Transformer oil does more than remove heat. It is a core part of the insulation system that keeps electric fields stable inside a transformer. When the oil becomes wet, acidic, or contaminated, the dielectric strength drops and the risk of failure rises.

This article explains how clean oil supports insulation, how moisture and aging change its electrical properties, and how dissolved gas analysis reveals early signs of trouble long before the equipment shows visible symptoms.
