Load tests of coatings of internal structures of oil transformers

Client:
GO Steel, a.s.

The main production range of the company is steel strips and sheets for electrical engineering. Before expanding the production portfolio to include painted steels for internal structures of oil transformers, it was necessary to independently test the compatibility of different coatings with electrical insulating fluids. Stress tests were carried out in the ORGREZ oils laboratory and, based on the laboratory's opinion, the customer chose the appropriate type of varnish or the modification of its properties to meet the specified criteria.
