  • Patent number: 6213165
    Abstract: A method for filling an electrical device with a multi-component insulating filler, including the steps of: mixing at least two components of insulating filler each with compressible microspheres; measuring at regular intervals a viscosity of each of the at least two components of insulating filler mixed with the microspheres until each of the at least two components of insulating filler have a substantially uniform viscosity; mixing the at least two components of insulating filler together in order to obtain a multi-component insulating filler; extracting air present in a free volume V of the electrical device using a vacuum pump; filling the free volume V of the electrical device with the multi-component insulating filler until the free volume V of the electrical device is completely filled; and injecting an additional amount of the multi-component insulating filler in order to develop overpressure.
