How Does Temperature Influence the Lifespan of a Transformer?

Posted by Bill Dull | December 18, 2021 | 0 Comments

All electrical devices produce heat as an operational byproduct. In transformers, normal operation causes an internal temperature increase or temperature rise. When the transformer is at its nameplate rating, the transformer temperature rise is the average temperature increase of the windings above the ambient temperature. This increase in temperature has the potential to shorten the [...]
