Daily Transformer Inspection Checklist Regular inspection of transformers is essential for their efficient operation and long life. Below is a simple checklist for daily transformer inspection to ensure safety and performance. 1. Check and Record Winding Temperature Monitor the winding temperature and note it down. Abnormal temperature rise may indicate a fault. 2. Check and Record Oil Temperature Measure and record the oil temperature. Overheating of oil can reduce its insulating properties. 3. Check Conservator Tank Oil Level Ensure the oil level in the conservator tank is adequate. A low level may indicate leakage or oil degradation. 4. Check for Oil Leakages Inspect the transformer for any visible oil leaks, which can lead to serious operational issues. 5.
