For this condition needed to maintenance power transformer, one of which is by analyzing transformer oil by using the TDCG method.
This analysis is carried out to determine the diagnosis of faults in the transformer.
This method are the condition of the analysis which is based on the amount of a gas dissolved on oil a transformer.
This study used four methods for transformer failure analysis are TDCG method.

analysis method Introduction The transformer is one of the components of the electric power system(Abu-Siada & Islam, 2.
that is very vital in the distribution of electrical energy (Nisworo et al.
, 2.
, therefore its reliability in operation must be maintaine that the process of distributing electrical energy continues to run properly (Ismail et al.
, 2.
Over the Age of, oil transformer will experience a decrease in quality (Gouda et al.
, 2.
This happen because two factors are influence of stress (Voltage Stres.
and heating (Thermal Stres.
(Rahardjo et al.
, 2.
As a result, contaminants will form in the oil which can be in the form of solid, gas or liquid particles (Muttaqin et al.

To find out, the author will examine the analysis of the condition of transformer oil PT-8801-A at PT.

How to know at what temperature the transformer oil begin to not function as a coolant? .
How to know gas failure (Fault Gtyaps.

How to find out the diagnosis of disturbances that occur in transformer oil? Research Objectives In accordance with the problems described above, the purpose of writing this thesis is to:
To find out at what temperature the transformer oil begins to not function as a coolant.
To find out the type ofFault Gas on the PT-8801-A transformer at PT.

Literature Review Transformer Power transformer is an electrical power equipment that serves to distribute power or electrical power from high voltage to low voltage (Step Dow.

In the operation of the distribution of electric power, the transformer can be said to be the heart of the transmission and distribution (Nisworo et al.

this condition a transformer is expected to operate optimally continuously without stopping.
Considering the hard work of such a transformer, the maintenance method must also be demanded as well as possible so that it is used properly and correctly to the maximum (Manjang et al.

Figure 1 Oil in transformer Transformer Oil Transformer oil is mineral oil obtained by refining crude oil.
In this used, this oil because to the influence of heat from losses in the transformer will result in hydrocarbons.
As an insulating material, transformer oil must have a high breakdown voltage.
This oil will fill the spaces between the coils in the core windings and other spaces in the transformer The transformer does not have a rotating part, therefore the heat transfer process is carrie out by means of the core of the transformer iron being immersed or submerged in oil, which is calledwith Oil Immersed Type Transformer (Musil et al.
, 1.
Formation of Dissolved Gas in Transformer Oil Transformer insulation material consists of paper or cellulose insulation and oil.
Both types of materials can be degrad because the influence of temperature pressure (Thermal stresse.
and electrical pressure (Electrical Stresse.
The effect of this pressure will cause the decomposition of gases dissolved in the oil with varying composition (Rozga et al.
, 2.
The following are dissolved gases that are commonly produced when transformer oil works:
Hydrocarbon and hydrogen gas: methane (CH.
, ethane (C2H.
, ethylene (C2H.
, acetylene (C2H.
and hydrogen (H.
Oxide gases: carbon monoxide (CO), and carbon dioxide (CO.
Gases not from failure: nitrogen (N.
and Oxygen (O.
Transformer Oil Disturbance Due to Dissolved Gas There are four disturbances that can occur due to the formation of gases in the condition of the transformer operating.
Arching.
the occurrence of an arc can produce hydrogen gas and acetylene gas in high quantities, besides methane and ethylene gas can also be formed but in small amounts.
Carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide are also formed if these disturbances damage the paper insulation.
Overheating Of Oilor Overheating can also cause decomposition oil, and produces ethylene gas, methane with small amounts of hydrogen and ethane gas.
If under the influence of electric pressure can produce acetylene gas.
Coronathe occurrence of corona in transformer oil could cause gas hydrogen, methane, ethane and ethylene gas.

Transformer oil in a pure state Analysis Conclusion Finish Figure 2 Chat Flow Diagram DGA Analysis Dissolved Gas Analysis (DGA)is one of the maintenance techniques that can be done to observe the condition of the transformer on the oil insulating material, to measure the gases that are emitted produced as a result of the degradation of insulating oil or other insulation such as paper, pressboard, and transformerboard.
The composition of the concentration of gases that arise in the transformer oil can be related to the type of disturbance while the concentration of rising gases indicates the level of disturbance that occurs.
One method that is widely used to determine the condition of transformer insulation is to analyze the dissolved gas in DGA oil (Dissolved Gas Analysi.
By using gas chromatography, the type and concentration of gas in oil can be determined.
Next from the type and concentration gas the represented transformer.
DGA Testing Steps The steps taken to perform DGA testing:
Sampling of the existing insulating oil test on the transformer.
Extraction of gas using the DGA equipment itself.
Data interpretation, obtaining data results from the insulating oil sample test carried out.
Conclusions, after getting the results of the gas in oil data transformer so taken conclusion state oil transformer.
Analysis of Gas Extraction Result Data One method that is widely used to determine the diagnosis of transformer isolation conditions is to analyze the dissolved gas in the oil (Dissolved Gas Analysi.

Figure 3 Coordinates of duval triangle Transformer Oil Purification Efforts can be made so that liquid insulation, especially transformer oil, has experienced heat symptoms caused by dissolved gases and particles in the transformer oil that have exceeded the limit and can be reused properly.
Then it is done by purification, the transformer oil purification process is a combination of two processes, namely filtration and vacuum processes.
This purification process can improve the low breakdown voltage .

Figure 4 Transformer oil purification tool Testing of Moisture Content and Translucent Stress Testing of transformer oil is carried out either with the condition when symptoms occur or after being purified because the limit for insulation failure must be known which has exceeded the recommended limit by (SPLN 49-1:1.
