Charbel AGLINGOThis course is really intuitive and clear, covering the concepts of latching and SSR relays. In fact, SSRs generally have 4 parts: an input circuit, a matching circuit, a power switching device and a protection circuit. Latching relays, on the other hand, are bistable relays for heavy loads specially designed to act as tripping and latching relays in critical electrical systems.
