Servicing a transformer during summer is important because
high ambient temperatures increase thermal stress, insulation aging, and the
risk of overheating. The main servicing requirements focus on cooling,
insulation health, oil condition, and load management.
Major Risks if Summer Servicing Is Ignored
- Transformer
overheating
- Insulation

- Reduced
transformer life
- Unexpected
shutdowns
- Fire

- Power
interruption
For power distribution transformers and industrial
transformers, preventive summer servicing is considered essential before
peak-load season starts.
We at AKG focus on quality, reliability, and technical competence to test oil parameters such as dielectric breakdown voltage (BDV), moisture content, acidity, and dissolved gases. Regular testing helps identify potential faults before they become serious.
We at AKG performed transformer oil filtration in a
specialized and highly technical business that requires expertise, advanced
equipment, and strict safety standards. We at AKG use filtration machines
equipped with vacuum dehydration systems, centrifugal separators, and fine
particle filters to clean transformer oil. The process generally involves
heating the oil, removing moisture and gases under vacuum pressure, and
filtering out suspended particles. Modern filtration units can restore
dielectric strength, reduce acidity, and extend transformer life significantly.
