what is the main difference b/w contactor and relay..

Answer / amit rajak

contactor- it is simply a switch or combination of switch
which is used to open or closed the circuit having
different phase wire in single phase circuit or three phase
circuit by automatic that is by pneumatic ( by air ) or
also manually.


relay -it is a protecting device that is used to protect
the circuit from faults.
it is basically a sensor which senses the fault in
electrical circuit having different parameters .it ihas a
predetermined set parameter which makes comparision under
fault condition and provides the initial signal to the
circuit breaker which fif finds the parameter more than
the predetermined magnitude or value it trips the circuit
examples of relays are:
1).electromagnetic relays
2).thermal relays
3).induction relays
4).differential relays
5).distace relays

few modification are used in these relays to suite certain
operation.

12 Answers  


sir , what happen if we decrease ( approx 3 inch ) the lenth of shaft in 110KW Induction , three phase motor. actually a 110KW motor is couppled with star couplling to 120TR compressor. When we doing maintenance in compressor it is required to skid the motor backword and resulting dis- alightnment . so we want to change the tyre coupling in place of existing coupling. so it is required to cut off the rotor aprox 3 inch form driving side.

An 11kv system consisting of an underground cable to a sub station about 300 meters away was shut down for about 10 hrs. On energising, it tripped off on earth fault about 10---20 mins later 6 times but since than it is not tripping.its already 3 weeks now. The SPAJ was found to be fine. what could be the cause.No test had been done to determine the cause of the trippings till now because of demand.
