The BDV (Breakdown Voltage) value of engine oil measures its dielectric strength, indicating how well the oil can insulate and resist electrical breakdown. A higher BDV value signifies better quality and performance, as it can help prevent the formation of sludge and ensure effective lubrication under high temperatures and pressures. Typically, BDV values for engine oils should be above 30 kV to ensure proper functionality and longevity. Regular testing can help monitor the oil's condition and its ability to protect engine components.

Why bdv value increases when testing the same oil sample?

Because electorn ionised the moisture content and evaporated. Every trial for the same sample moisture content get reduced which helps to improve dielectric strength a bit. But if the sample having very low dielerctric strength it should be thrown.
