Application
RZL-05.AVC intended for automatic and manual voltage control of a two- and three-winding three-phase power transformer with a motor driven on-load tap-changer. Devices are designed to automatically maintain the voltage at the LV-side of a power transformer within given limits around a set target voltage. RZL-05.AVC also has all necessary supervision and auto-blocking functions.
