Abstract
Description
Studies on the electrical properties of several locally availabl~ vegetable oils have
strong similarity between their properties and those of the transformer oil used for
comparison purposes. Appropriate treatment of the oils gave oils of higher break
down voltages than that of the transformer oil. The results also showed the
dependence of the result on the percentage FF A content of the oils.
Further studies requiring the use of highly refine~ oils (very low FFA) in
actual operation are necessary. These will test the stability of the oils during
actual performance and serve· to confirm the promise shown by these renewable
raw materials.
