  • Is relay protection part of a monitoring system

    Is relay protection part of a monitoring system

    A monitoring relay, as the name suggests, is a type of protection relay that is used to monitor various conditions of an electrical system. In other words, it is an electrical switch that is triggered when a certain preset parameter is exceeded. The relay then initiates the appropriate control circuit actions. It protects 3-phase devices from any potential damage caused by phase loss or sequence change. It functions as a watchdog by constantly surveying multiple system components including voltage, current, frequency, and phase angle.
