Abstract: Abstract The Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) is an international environmental treaty that aims to reduce or limit the production and use of persistent organic pollutants (POPs), which can cause harmful impacts on human health and the environment. Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) that contaminate transformer oil is one of the substances that can be included in the Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) category. In Indonesia, the ratification of the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants is outlined through the issuance of Law No. 19 of 2009. As stated in the 2008 National Implementation Plan (NIP) which was then reviewed and updated in 2014, the elimination and destruction of PCBs is one of the national priorities in implementing the results of the Stockholm Convention which is regulated through Minister of Environment and Forestry Regulation Number 29 of 2020 concerning Management of Polychlorinated Biphenyls. PT PLN (Persero) South Sulawesi Distribution Unit, Southeast Sulawesi and West Sulawesi, which has the most transformers in South Sulawesi, Southeast Sulawesi and West Sulawesi Provinces, is also committed to managing PCBs in accordance with the Minister of Environment and Forestry Regulation Number 29 of 2020.
