Larger industrial transformers that carry high voltages get hot. Internal heat deteriorates components and breaks down insulation. Oil inside a transformer reduces heat and improves insulation. But the oil can pick up condensation and create oxidation byproducts that eventually deteriorate other components. Transformer oil must be periodically changed or filtered. Some transformers have built-in filtration systems, but other require an external filter. Industrial transformers are dangerous and only qualified power company employees should approach them to filter transformer oil. Never go near an industrial transformer without authorization.
