Abstract

Today’s global economy obliges manufacturers to produce their products in high quality with cheaper cost. Thus, manufacturers must develop their products applying tests to get better performance and higher quality before distributing them to the competitive market. In order to produce long working life of transformer reactors without losing their performance, different tests including axial and flexural testing are applied on the cellulose based laminated board material used in production. During development of laminated board material, test results should be known very well and the measurement uncertainty of tensile tests should be calculated taking into account all parameters. In this study, effective parameters on the quality of tensile testing causing an increase on the measurement uncertainty are investigated. Tensile strength and elongation test of laminated board material were carried out according to IEC 60641-2 and the uncertainty contributions based on experimental results were calculated. The results and impact of the uncertainty parameters are presented in detail.
