hi apex sir,
pls help, the clipping led is burning very quickly, why is that.

check supply voltages,i'd do that first. i compared visualy your layout with APEX PA PROTECT layout and there are few diferences in component placing,so you changed it at few places. i'd also say that there is one 180k instead 100k resistor. why have you placed le-diode instead one 1n4148,that can also cause troubles? compare your layout with scheme and check voltages,you will find mistake,i'm sure!

measure the voltage across that 5W 47R resistor and than calculate power disipated on it by the formula P=R x I^2. if the power calculated is larger than 2W than you should use 7W resistor.
power disipated by 7812 is also easy calculated by measuring voltage between in/out pinouts and multiplying it with current flowing through it. if the power calculated is smaller than suggested by manufacturer than just add a heatsink on it.
.
what voltage is at relay coil?
.
what is main supply voltage?
