Prod #: TS-2601-Protection-Relay-Basics (1.5hr) 1.5 NETA CTD and 1.5 CEU Delaware Electrical License Renewal
Protection Relay Basics Course:
This online training module; Protection Relays Basics is a 1.5-hour online training certificate course covering the common applications of overcurrent protection, types of the relay ( interposing relay circuit, differential, potential, overvoltage) including solid state relays and microprocessor based. It also covers power systems, transformer protection, and zone of protection. This training module is designed to familiarize the student whether beginner or expert with the essential features, functions, and benefits of Induction Disc, Solid State, and Microprocessor-Based Protective relays.
Learning Objectives:
Upon completion of this course, the student will be qualified to:
☑ Understand the Features of All Protective Relays

This online industrial protection relay training course is pre-approved for 1.5 NETA CTDs (1.5 PDH).
NETA Certified Technicians (Level 3 and Level 4) are required to earn a minimum of 48 CTDs (Continuing Technical Development Credits) every three years to maintain their certification. For more information about the NETA's CTD program and requirements, please contact the NETA office.
This online Protective Relay Essentials certificate course is based on the book "Applied Protective Relaying" by J.L. Blackburn (Westinghouse Electric Copyright 1979) consider even today to be the bible for Protective Relay application by engineers and maintenance today. (Other companies like ABB have produced similar publications.)
Protection Relay Applications:
While the most common application is the over-current protection relay, transformer protection and other power system protection applications are also very common. For example, protection relays are used in substations. So just as motor protection relay is common, so are phase monitoring relay applications. Those new to this subject may be reminded there is also the under voltage relay, the generator protection relay, etc. that offer much more protection than just a breaker would do. Monitoring current, voltage, phase, temperature, differential, etc., Especially the solid state relays and microprocessor relays with complex time current curves (trip curves) and combinations of monitoring power.
