For 78 years, the Annual Conference for Protective Relay Engineers has provided the best available information on protective relay applications and technology. With the changes that have occurred in the electric power industry, including increased concerns over reliability and a business emphasis on efficiency and cost savings, the relay conference is even more important.
The 2025 Conference for Protective Relay Engineers will take place in-person on the Texas A&M University campus from March 31–April 3, 2025. This event will feature paper presentations and Q&A sessions with presenters, an interactive exhibition hall of industry sponsors, and evening receptions.
