 PART B :- MICROPROJECT REPORT.

1.0 Rationale (Importance of the project) :-

In the ever-evolving landscape of electrical engineering and technology, the need for a
comprehensive market survey of different types of relays is of paramount importance.
Relays serve as pivotal components in electrical systems, facilitating the control and
protection of circuits and equipment. Here's a detailed rationale for conducting such a
market survey of various relay types is essential to adapt to evolving technologies,
enhance safety, ensure compliance, and optimize efficiency across diverse industries. It
empowers decision-makers to make informed choices for robust and reliable electrical
systems.

2.0 Aim / Benefits of the Micro-Project :-

Market survey of different types of Relays

3.0 Course outcome addressed :-

• Test the performance of different protective relays.

4.0 Literature Review:-

The importance of relays in electrical engineering cannot be overstated. Relays are
fundamental components that play a critical role in controlling electrical circuits and
protecting them from various faults and overcurrents. In this section, we review
relevant literature to provide insights into the market survey of different types of
relays.

• Definition and Functionality of Relays

According to Eaton, a leading electrical component manufacturer, relays are devices
used to open or close electrical contacts in response to changes in current, voltage, or
temperature. They serve as control switches, facilitating the automation of electrical
systems. The primary function of relays is to isolate and protect sensitive control
circuits from the high-power circuits they control.

• Types of Relays
Relays come in various types, each tailored to specific applications. In their research,
Cadence discusses the differences between relays and emphasizing that relays are
often used for control and signal switching rather than circuit protection
Understanding the diverse types of relays is essential for selecting the right relay for a
given application.

• Electromagnetic Relays
