    Relays are electromechanical or electronic switches that control one electrical circuit by opening and closing contacts in another circuit. They are used to open or close circuits based on inputs and can protect circuits by tripping breakers when faults are detected. The plug setting multiplier refers to the ratio of the fault current detected by a relay compared to its pickup current setting.

    What is the function of the relay?

    Relays are switches that open and close circuits electromechanically or


    electronically. Relays control one electrical circuit by opening and closing contacts in
    another circuit. As relay diagrams show, when a relay contact is normally open (NO), there
    is an open contact when the relay is not energized.

    a relay contact is normally open (NO), there is an open contact when the relay is not

    What is the protection relay?


    In electrical engineering, a protective relay is a device designed to trip a circuit breaker
    when a fault is detected.

    What is a plug setting multiplier?


    Plug setting multiplier of relay is referred as ratio of fault current in the relay to its pick up
    current. Suppose we have connected on protection CT of ratio 200/1 A and current setting is
    150%. Hence, pick up current of the relay is, 1 150 % = 1.5 A.
