INTERNATIONAL ELECTROTECHNICAL COMMISSION
____________
INSULATING LIQUIDS –
DETERMINATION OF THE BREAKDOWN VOLTAGE AT POWER
FREQUENCY – TEST METHOD
FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 60156 has been prepared by IEC technical committee TC 10: Fluids
for electrotechnical applications.
This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2018. This edition
constitutes a technical revision and, mainly, confirms the content of the previous edition even
if some advances are included. The test method has not been changed for practical reason due
to the very large number of instrumentations disseminated around the world.
The text of this International Standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
10/XXXX/FDIS 10/XXXX/RVD
Full information on the voting for the approval of this International Standard can be found in the
report on voting indicated in the above table.

The committee has decided that the contents of this document will remain unchanged until the

the specific document. At this date, the document will be
• reconfirmed,
• withdrawn,

The National Committees are requested to note that for this document the stability date
is 20xx.

1 INTRODUCTION
2 As normally applied, breakdown voltage of insulating liquids is not a basic material property but
3 an empirical test procedure intended to indicate the presence of contaminants such as water
4 and solid suspended matter and the advisability of carrying out drying and filtration treatment.
5 The AC breakdown voltage value of insulating liquids strongly depends on the particular set of
6 conditions used in its measurement. Therefore, standardized testing procedures and equipment
7 are essential for the unambiguous interpretation of test results.
8 The method described in this document applies to either acceptance tests on new deliveries of
9 insulating liquids, or testing of treated liquids prior to or during filling into electrical equipment,
10 or to the monitoring and maintenance of insulating liquid -filled apparatus in service. It specifies
11 rigorous sample-handling procedures and temperature control that should be adhered to when
12 certified results are required. For routine tests, especially in the field, less stringent procedures
13 may be practicable and it is the responsibility of the user to determine their effect on the results.
14 Annex A (informative) describes, for comparison, an alternative test method which could be
15 introduced in the future. Annex B (informative) describes special test methods, using cells which
16 may include low volume samples. Annex C (informative) describes a reference material for a
17 performance test and check according to IEC 60060-3 [1] .
