Thermal overload relays use a bimetallic strip that bends with heat from excess current, while electronic relays use circuit boards to monitor current electronically, offering more precise trip settings and diagnostics.
They continuously monitor current flow in the motor circuit and automatically disconnect power when detecting sustained excessive current, preventing overheating and winding damage from overload conditions.
Yes, most overload relays feature manual or automatic reset functions after the trip mechanism cools down (thermal) or the fault clears, allowing motor operation to resume safely.
