It is a tax on imported goods (or goods that come into the country).So, a protective tariff would be one that protects the country from foreign competition. For example, the tariff of 1828.

Does a protective tarrif on manufactured goods cause the prices of those goods to go lower or higher?
This depends entirely on the location of manufactures. For example; if the United States decides that it wishes for the American Automobile business to become more prevalent within its borders, it will impose a Protective Tariff on foreign Automobiles, making it more expensive for competition to export to the U.S. Therefore, if a foreign Automobile Manufacturer decides to continue exporting its cars to the U.S, it will need to raise the prices of those cars, to make up for the cost of export (the Protective Tax). However as the prices of foreign goods go up, the price of locally manufactured goods will go down, as there will be more commerce directed at them. If two relatively similar cars, one locally manufactured and cheaper, and one imported and more expensive, the majority of people will purchase the former, thus allowing the local manufacturer to lower its prices because of the amount of business it conducts. Hope that's helpful.
