A protective
relay is a device designed to register over-current, over-voltage, reverse
power flow, over- and under- frequency in order to avoid any major accidents
and flashovers. It trips the circuit breaker when a fault is detected. If there
is any discrepancy or the abnormality in the current voltage or any other power
measurement, protective relay detect it and trigger an alarm. In this case, a
circuit breaker is used to switch the electrical power on and off to avoid
system damage. There are different kinds of protective relays including electromechanical
protective relays, and digital protective relays are majorly used across
various sectors such as Power, and Industrial. Analysts forecast the Global Protective Relays market will grow at a
CAGR of 10.13 percent over the period 2013-2018.
