4 hrs confidence: 
oil-filled pocket Explanation: I have come across this term several times when translating documents about transformers; the temperature sensor (thermometer) is placed in an oil filled pocket instead of directly in the oil. this term was confirmed by my client, a major transfo manufacturer. I assume the same term is used in your context. Reference: http://www.trafomaterials.com.sg/web_english/akm_resistempsp... |
