3 Terms and Definitions
For the purpose of this document, the terms and definitions given in GB/T 2900.15 and the following apply.
3.1
buchholz relay
relay protection device for oil-immersed transformers
Note: When the oil is decomposed to generate gas or cause oil flow impulse due to internal failure of the transformer, the contact of the relay is actuated to turn on the specified control loop, and the signal is sent in time or the transformer is automatically cut off.
3.2
alarm contact
electrical contact inside the relay that operates when the amount of gas accumulated inside the relay reaches the specified range
3.3
trip contact
electrical contact inside the relay that operates when the flow rate of the transformer oil flowing through the relay reaches a specified setting
