Sampling Of Oil From Oil-Filled
Equipment
It is important to bear in mind that receiving a
qualitative and a representative sample in crucial for
obtaining a reliable diagnosis of the electrical
equipment. Even the most sophisticated extraction or
diagnosis methods cannot overcome faulty samples.

Sampling Of Oil From Oil-Filled
Equipment
Precautions should be taken to deal with any sudden
release of oil and avoid oil spillage when sampling oil.
There are two common methods of sampling of the oil:
• By syringe
• By bottle
