Abstract

This Uganda Standard covers a test method for determining the resistance of mineral transformer oils to oxidation under prescribed accelerated aging conditions. Oxidation stability is measured by the propensity of oils to form sludge and acid products during oxidation. This test method is applicable to new oils, both uninhibited and inhibited, but is not well defined for used or reclaimed oils. (This standard is an adoption of ASTM D2440-13 Standard Test Method for Oxidation Stability of Mineral Insulating Oil). This standard was published on 2022-02-04
