NOVEMBER TECH TALK:
Fundamentals of Dissolved Gas Analysis
by Danny Boulay
Transformer reliability is essential to grid stability, yet internal faults can develop long before visible signs emerge. In this Tech Talk, we’ll provide a high-level overview of Dissolved Gas Analysis (DGA)—a vital diagnostic tool for identifying early indicators of transformer issues, particularly those involving critical components like paper insulation. We’ll cover the fundamentals of how gases form within transformer oil during thermal or electrical stress, how to interpret gas concentrations and ratios, and what they reveal about fault types and severity. This session will also provide insight into how DGA can help determine whether a fault is affecting the transformer's paper insulation—information that can directly impact asset life and maintenance decisions. Whether you're new to DGA or looking to sharpen your diagnostic skills, this session will offer practical knowledge and tools to help you detect emerging problems early and make informed maintenance decisions that protect high-value transformer assets.
