Is a relay defect and open load the same?

A relay is basically a controllable switch that connects a supply voltage to a load. If the relay is switch such that the load is not connected, that could be considered an open load. If it is switched the other way the load will be connected to its supply voltage. A defect in a relay would be something that caused it not to function correctly. It could be in the switch portion of the supply portion of the relay. Hence you are referring to different things and a defect may or may not cause the load to be open.


What is function of damping relay in circuit breaker?

The anti-pumping relay is a device in circuit-breaker whose function is to prevent multiple breaker closures. For instance, if the operator gives the closing command to the breaker by pressing the close button and the breaker closes. However, a fault in the system causes the breaker to trip. Since the close command is still in the pressed condition, there is a chance of the breaker closing again and being tripped by the relay multiple times. This can damage the closing mechanism of the breaker. The anti-pumping relay prevents this by ensuring that the breaker closes only once for one close command from the control panel.
