IEEE C57.125
Guide for Failure Investigation, Documentation, Analysis, and Reporting for Power Transformers and Shunt Reactors

Page Count: | 84 |
scope:
This guide recommends a procedure to be used to perform and document a failure analysis and the reporting and statistical analysis of reliability of power transformers and shunt reactors used on electric power systems.
Purpose
This document is intended to provide a methodology by which the most probable cause of any particular transformer failure may be determined by applying the scientific method to investigations; provide sufficient guidelines, examples, and case histories to promote uniformity in the analysis of transformer failures; encourage the establishment of routine and uniform data collection so that valuable facts are not lost or destroyed; encourage consistency of nomenclature and compatibility with similar efforts by other organizations (Examples include but not limited to CIGRE, EEI, IEC, NEMA, NERC, and AEIC); and encourage cooperative efforts by users and manufacturers during the failure analysis.
