1.1This test method covers the determination of particle concentration and particle size distribution in mineral insulating oil. It is suitable for testing oils having a viscosity of 6 to 20 mm2/s at 40°C. The test method is specific to liquid automatic particle analyzers that use the light extinction principle.
1.2The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.
