Be sure to consult the instruction manual for your specific safety relay to ensure that you're following the correct reset procedure.

Once the safety relay has been reset you can turn the power back on to the machine or equipment. Its important to perform a test run of the equipment to ensure that it's functioning properly before putting it back into service.

In summary resetting an Allen Bradley safety relay is a relatively simple process, but its important to follow proper procedures to avoid any potential hazards. Be sure to consult the instruction manual for your specific safety relay and perform a test run of the equipment before putting it back into service.
