I wouldn't need to
wire the relay as a latching relay would I? Or can it be wired as a

The purpose of the latching relay is so it will drop out under a power loss
condition, and not restart. A mechanical latching button, would allow an
electrical restart on a drop of power.

IMHO, the latching relay is a very desirable safety feature, and in industry
on most machines is a requirement, at least when I was working.
