Data record `tests.insulation-power-factor-dissipation-factor.ieeec57-12-90.definition`

Verified 2026-10-24 Confidence: High

IEEE C57.12.90-2021 defines insulation power factor as the watts that the insulation dissipates divided by the volt-amperes applied to it, measured with a sinusoidal voltage under prescribed conditions, and states that the test applies to liquid-immersed distribution and power transformers of present-day design.
