Electrodynamic Relay
-KOYAL
Relays are the devices which detect the abnormal conditions!!
Basic Definition
Electromagnetic Relays (EMRs)◦ EMRs consist of an input coil that's wound to
accept a particular voltage signal, plus a set of one or more contacts that rely on an armature (or lever) activated by the energized coil to open or close an electrical circuit.
Solid-state Relays (SSRs)◦ SSRs use semiconductor output instead of
mechanical contacts to switch the circuit. The output device is optically-coupled to an LED light source inside the relay. The relay is turned on by energizing this LED, usually with low-voltage DC power.
Microprocessor Based Relays◦ Use microprocessor for switching mechanism.
Commonly used in power system monitoring and protection.

Attached Armature type Relay
Balanced Beam Relay
Electromagnetic Relays (EMRs)◦ Simplicity◦ Not expensive◦ Mechanical Wear
Solid-state Relays (SSRs)◦ No Mechanical movements◦ Faster than EMR◦ No sparking between contacts
Microprocessor-based Relay◦ Much higher precision and more reliable and durable. ◦ Improve the reliability and power quality of electrical
power systems before, during and after faults occur.◦ Capable of both digital and analog I/O.◦ Higher cost
Advantages/Disadvantages
Relays control output circuits of a much higher power.
Safety is increased Protective relays are essential for
keeping faults in the system isolated and keep equipment from being damaged.
