Insulating liquids - Test method for detection of potentially corrosive sulphur in used and unused insulating oil
IEC 62535:2008 specifies a test method for detection of potentially corrosive sulphur in used and unused mineral insulating oil. Most recent failures due to corrosive sulphur are related to the formation of copper sulphide deposits in and on the surface of winding cellulosic paper. The test method uses a copper conductor, wrapped with one layer of paper, immersed in the oil and heated to evaluate the capability of the oil to yield copper sulphide and transfer it to paper layers. The growth of copper sulphide on bare copper may cause the presence of conductive particulates in the oil, which can act as nuclei for electrical discharge and may lead to a fault. Other test methods exist using a bare copper strip immersed in oil and heated to detect the corrosive behaviour of oil against copper. ASTM D1275 Method B is also used for this test and a modified procedure using low oil volumes is included in Annex A. Tests with and without paper are considered as complementary and may lead to different results.

Liquides isolants - Méthode d'essai pour la détection du soufre potentiellement corrosif dans les huiles usagées et neuves
La CEI 62535 :2008 spécifie une méthode d'essai relative à la détection du soufre potentiellement corrosif dans les huiles minérales isolantes usagées et neuves. La plupart des défaillances récentes du fait du soufre corrosif sont liées à la formation de dépôts de sulfure de cuivre dans et à la surface du papier cellulosique de l'enroulement. La méthode d'essai utilise un conducteur en cuivre, recouvert d'une couche de papier, immergé dans l'huile et chauffé pour évaluer la capacité de l'huile à produire du sulfure de cuivre et le transférer sur les couches de papier. La croissance du sulfure de cuivre sur le cuivre nu peut provoquer la présence de particules conductrices dans l'huile, qui peuvent agir comme des noyaux pour la décharge électrique et peuvent conduire à un défaut. D'autres méthodes d'essai qui utilisent une bande de cuivre nu immergée dans l'huile et chauffée existent pour détecter le comportement corrosif de l'huile par rapport au cuivre. La norme ASTM D1275, méthode B est également utilisée pour cet essai et une procédure modifiée utilisant de faibles volumes d'huile est incluse dans l'Annexe A. Des essais avec et sans papier sont considérés comme complémentaires et peuvent conduire à des résultats différents.

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 provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication.
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.

INTRODUCTION
In recent years, several failures of transformers and reactors due to copper sulphide
formation in/on the cellulose insulation have been reported worldwide. The tendency of
transformer oils to form copper sulphide in the presence of copper is seen as one of the major
contributing factors.
The most common reason for such failures is arcing between adjacent disks or conductors of
a winding, due to the formation of deposits of copper sulphide on the cellulosic insulating
paper.
It has been demonstrated that existing test methods for corrosive sulphur, ASTM D1275
method A and DIN 51353, are unable to detect oils having potentially corrosive behaviour.
For this reason, IEC technical committee 10 has prepared this International Standard for the
detection of potentially corrosive sulphur in mineral insulating oils. The wrapped conductor
test method is suitable for used and unused mineral oils.
This test method is based on a study performed by Conseil International des Grands Réseaux
Electriques (CIGRE) working group A2.32 [1] .
