Protective relay training offers an overview of power system protection, relay schemes, digital and electromechanical relays, fault detection, coordination & practical relay settings, ideal for engineers, technicians, or electrical maintenance staff. The Protective Relay Maintenance Distribution course is an intensive, hands-on, lab oriented presentation. ABB's knowledge and experience are not limited to relays only, full support for all protection and control relays throughout their entire life cycle. Over time, both older electromechanical relays and newer solid-state or microprocessor-based relays can wear down or fail in ways that are. Electromechanical protective relays in industrial distribution systems provide protection against overloads, faults and abnormal conditions.
