A safety relay is an electromechanical or electronic device designed to reliably monitor safety-related inputs and trigger predefined safety outputs. Its job is to shut down or isolate power when hazardous conditions are detected—providing a fail-safe mechanism for machine safety. Protective relays can be classified based on their operating principle, construction, or function: 1.

Protective Relay Definition: A protective relay is an automatic device that senses abnormal conditions in electrical circuits and triggers actions to isolate faults. It initiates the operation of circuit breakers to isolate the affected section. We will also look into major global brands.
