what is the function of breather in a transformer

Answer Posted / vishal kumar sharma.

As the transformer oil (used in transformer for cooling in
oil tank) is a very costely & important for transformer.
Its provide cooling to windings as well as inolation.

If the moisture mix in this oil, its electric resistavity
is decrease which is harmfull for the windings and the oil
life is also decrease. As we use a silicon breather in the
input way of air, which comes when temperature of oil &
windings decrease.
