Types of Protective Relays: Protective relays are categorized by their mechanism (electromagnetic, static, mechanical) and function (time-based, current, voltage). Static Relays: Use electronic components without moving parts. IEEE/IAS/I&CPSD Protection & Coordination WG Chair Jacobs Canada, Calgary, AB rasheek. com IEEE Southern Alberta Section PES/IAS Joint Chapter Technical Seminar - November 2016 Protective Relays - Technical Seminar Nov 2016 - Copyright: IEEE 2 Abstract: Protective relays and devices. We also call latching relays Impulse Relays or Keep Relays or Stay Relays. The internal magnet in a latching relay holds the contact. on energizing the coil, it holds the contact position, and hence now it does not require power to maintain its position. The relay remains in its state after the. Selectivity is a mandatory requirement for all protection, but the importance of it depends on the application.
