适用范围:This guide recommends tests1and evaluation procedures, as well as criteria and methods of maintenance,for less flammable hydrocarbon (LFH) transformer insulating fluids. These liquids are also known as highmolecular weight hydrocarbon (HMWH) fluids. HMWH dielectric fluids are hereby defined as those fluidshaving an ASTM D92 fire point of 300 °C or greater, being primarily composed of, but not restricted to,hydrocarbons. These fluids meet the requirements of the National Electrical Code® (NEC®) (NFPA 70-1999),2Article 450-23, as a less flammable dielectric for use in indoor applications when used in properlydesigned and installed transformers. Ester- and silicone-based fluids are not covered by this guide. Methodsof reconditioning LFH fluids are also described. It is not the intent of this guide to address retrofilling transformerswith LFH fluids. Any such substitution of fluids should be performed only after consultation withthe manufacturers of fluid and equipment. Where instructions given by the transformer or fluid manufacturersdiffer from those given in this guide, the manufacturer’s instructions are to be given preference.
