The conservator of an oil-filled transformer accommodates

  • A.the on-load tap changing mechanism
  • B.the expansion and contraction of the oil
  • C.the gas liberated by an internal fault
  • D.the cooling radiators of the transformer

Answer: B

Correct answer: the expansion and contraction of the oil

The conservator is a tank above the main tank, partly filled, that takes up the change in oil volume as the transformer heats and cools. Keeping the main tank always completely full excludes air from contact with the hot oil, which is what limits oxidation, and the small air space in the conservator breathes through the silica gel breather.
