105.11 Notes concerning oil sample
An oil sample is a major help in monitoring the quality of oil filled transformers and reactor coils. Great care should be taken when the sample is drawn off during transport to ensure that the test results represent the state of the transformer. Please answer the following questions with care. &ake' (ustomer' )ocation' +ype' Power rating' ,+$" -Product $o..'
