25、d with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of the standard to establish appropriate health and safety practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. The insulating oils which are the subject of this standard should be handled with due regard to personal h
26、ygiene. Direct contact with the eyes may cause irritation. In the case of eye contact, irrigation with copious quantities of clean running water should be carried out and medical advice sought. Some of the tests specified in this standard involve the use of processes that could lead to a hazardous s
27、ituation. Attention is drawn to the relevant standard for guidance. Environment This standard is applicable to mineral oils and non-mineral oils, chemicals and used sample containers. Attention is drawn to the fact that, some mineral oils in service may still be contaminated to some degree by PCBs.
28、If this is the case, safety countermeasures should be taken to avoid risks to workers, the public and the environment during the life of the equipment, by strictly controlling spills and emissions. Disposal or decontamination of these oils should be carried out strictly according to local regulation
29、s. Every precaution should be taken to prevent release of mineral oil and non-mineral oil into the environment.

30、cense from IHS-,-,- 6 60475 IEC:2011 METHOD OF SAMPLING INSULATING LIQUIDS 1 Scope This International Standard is applicable to the procedure to be used for insulating liquids in delivery containers and in electrical equipment such as power and instrument transformers, reactors, bushings, oil-filled
31、 cables, oil-filled tank-type capacitors, switchgear and load tap changers (LTCs). This standard applies to liquids the viscosity of which at the sampling temperature is less than 1 500 mm2/s (or cSt). It applies to mineral oils and non-mineral oils (such as synthetic esters, natural esters, vegetab
32、le oils or silicones). 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced docume

36、 adapters) NOTE This also includes sample containers, waste oil containers and other accessories. 3.4 sample containers containers such as syringes, bottles, ampoules or other devices used to store and transport samples of oil for analysis BS EN 60475:2011Copyright European Committee for Electrotech

38、ting liquids 4.1 New insulating liquids in delivery containers 4.1.1 Place of sampling The sample shall be taken from the part of the delivery container where the insulating liquid is likely to be most heavily contaminated. To evaluate the quality of a consignment, two types of samples may be normal
39、ly taken: a) composite sample: mixture of samples taken at the same level in several containers; b) individual sample: sample or mixture of samples taken at the same level in one container. From a delivery, individual samples of 1 l may be taken from different containers for the electric strength te
40、st. Further tests may be carried out on these samples and a complete examination on the mixture of these (composite sample). In certain cases, it may be useful to constitute an average sample within the container. An average sample is a mixture of samples taken at different levels in one container.
41、1) tankers: samples should be taken from each tanker as described in 4.1.4.2 below; 2) drums: samples should be taken as described in 4.1.4.3 below. In the case of a single drum, this shall be sampled. In case there is more than one drum of a lot of oil, sampling procedures should be negotiated betw
42、een supplier and user. For example, samples can be taken from 10 % of drums or at least 2 drums, whichever the largest. 4.1.2 Quantity of sample to be taken This depends on the tests to be performed and the procedures used. Typically, 2 l are taken. 4.1.3 Sampling equipment 4.1.3.1 General Since the
43、 results of the tests included in IEC requirements for insulating liquids can greatly depend on the impurities in the sample, it is essential to observe the following precautions: separate sampling equipment shall be reserved exclusively for each type of liquid. All seals and tubing used should be c
44、ompatible with the insulating liquid to be sampled; the equipment shall be clean and dry, following the cleaning procedures described in 4.2.1.6. Particular care should be taken to ensure the absence of any traces of solid impurities, such as dust, fibres, etc. The use of rags for cleaning is not pe
45、rmitted. 4.1.3.2 Sampling probes As examples, four types of sampling probes are described below. Other probes may also be used, provided they do not introduce any contamination. Stainless steel and aluminium are suitable. BS EN 60475:2011Copyright European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardizat

This is a dipper constructed o
47、f stainless steel or aluminium tubes and castings, machine-finished all over. It shall be sufficiently heavy to sink in the liquid. It should always be suspended by means of a metal wire or chain. String or other fibrous materials shall not be used. The cream dipper is used for taking top samples of
48、 insulating liquids. This probe shall be constructed as shown in Figure 2 and shall be of stainless steel.
