What is Reliability-based Dissolved Gas Analysis (R-DGA)?

Dissolved gas analysis is one of the most widely used diagnostic tools for detecting and assessing changes to the condition of a liquid-filled transformer. But a significant number of unplanned outages still occur from transformer faults that should be detectable by DGA — and maintenance teams remain frustrated by false alarms raised by conventional methods.

Reliability-based DGA is an improved interpretation method that associates fault gas production with transformer failures and provides a direct, actionable indication of risk.
