DGA monitor accuracy – Data and decisions
October 31, 2023This article by Doble’s Dr. Tony McGrail in Transformers Magazine explores the intricacies of DGA monitor accuracy, emphasizing the challenges in extracting dissolved gases from transformer oil. Despite international standards like IEC 60567 recommending a maximum accuracy of 15% for complete DGA systems, real-world application, as reflected in CIGRE brochures, suggests a potential deviation closer to 50%. The implications of varying accuracies on diagnoses, particularly when employing diagnostic tools like the Duval triangle, are analyzed.
