Father of Relay Protection

Schweitzer III invented the first microprocessor-based digital protective relay, revolutionizing the performance of electric power systems with computer-based protection and control equipment, and making a significant impact on the electric power utility industry. In addition to his countless specialist lectures, Walter Schossig has always attached great...

Father of Relay Protection

History of relay protection

Information about their widespread use comes to us from the 70s of the XIX century. M.O. Dolivo-Dobrovolsky can rightly be considered the founding father of relay protection.
