Active Standard

IEEE C57.125-2015

IEEE Guide for Failure Investigation, Documentation, Analysis, and Reporting for Power Transformers and Shunt Reactors

A procedure to be used to perform a failure analysis is recommended. The procedure is primarily focused on power transformers used on electric utility systems, although it may be used for an investigation into any ac transformer failure. This document provides a methodology by which the most probable cause of any particular transformer failure may be determined. This document is also intended to encourage the establishment of routine and uniform data collection procedures, consistency of nomenclature and compatibility with similar efforts by other organizations, and cooperative efforts by users and manufacturers during the failure analysis.(Also supersedes IEEE C57.117-1986)

Other Activities From This Working Group

Current projects that have been authorized by the IEEE SA Standards Board to develop a standard.


PC57.125

Guide for Failure Investigation, Documentation, Analysis, and Reporting for Power Transformers and Shunt Reactors

This guide recommends a procedure to be used to perform and document a failure analysis and the reporting and statistical analysis of reliability of power transformers and shunt reactors used on electric power systems.

Standards approved by the IEEE SA Standards Board that are within the 10-year lifecycle.


No Active Standards

These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.

These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.


No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards

These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.
