Since 1882, the first transformer was produced, it has been more than one hundred years about the history of transformer. Owing to the development of the producing technique and the improvement of the material, it has made great progress in capacitance,m performance, and the lifetime of the transformer. For example, the transformer possesses the advantages of low loss, small bulk, and light weight. The mean time before failure of a transformer is about 20to 30 years if we operate it in the normal condition. But according to our failure statistics of cast-resin dry-type transformer, the mean usage time is less than ten years. We will discuss the difference between the theo-retic and the practical usage. We decide to make a deeper discussion about the insulation deterioration. Finally, we will propose our sug-gestion which can lead us to know how to detect the difference of transformer vefore it fairs.
