The invention discloses an oil control device and method for an extra-high-voltage alternating-current transformer entity fire test. The oil control device comprises a data acquisition and central control system, an oil module for an oil storage tank test, an oil module for a body transformer test, an oil module for an adjustment and compensation transformer test, an oil module for an oil collection pit test and an oil module for an overflow oil storage tank test. The oil storage tank test oil module comprises an oil storage tank and an oil transportation mechanism. The oil outlet end of the oil transportation mechanism is provided with a body variable oil transportation end, an adjusting and supplementing variable oil transportation end, an oil collection pit oil transportation end and an overflow oil storage tank oil transportation end. The method comprises the steps of self-inspection, oil injection, cyclic heating, ignition, overflow fire formation, fire extinguishment, oil discharge and test termination. The device has the advantages that oil for testing can be managed and controlled in the whole process, the functions of oil injection and heating before testing, overflow in testing, oil discharge after testing and the like are achieved, and effective development of an extra-high-voltage alternating-current transformer entity fire test is guaranteed.
