What is shell GTL transformer oil and how is it used in power transformers?

Shell GTL transformer oil is a synthetic oil derived from natural gas through the Gas-to-Liquids (GTL) process. It is used in power transformers due to its excellent electrical insulating properties, high thermal stability, and low environmental impact. Shell GTL transformer oil enhances the performance and longevity of power transformers by providing effective cooling and reducing the risk of electrical breakdown, making it a preferred choice in modern electrical applications.
