The article describes a new method for drying electric motors and transformers based on electrokinetic phenomenon of electroosmosis. The process of electroosmotic motion of moisture in insulation capillaries is described. The advantages of electroosmotic drying associated with a significant reduction in energy and labor costs are presented.
