Detection of faults in power transformers

ALTHOUGH recent improvements in design, construction, installation, and maintenance of power transformers have made them notably trouble-free, faults do occur, and the possible consequential damage of a failure is sufficiently severe to justify very careful consideration to the detection of faults.
