Relays

Relays are often used in circuits where it is necessary to isolate two sections electrically. This can be useful, for example, in preventing electrical noise from one section of a circuit from interfering with another section. Additionally, relays can be used to make or break multiple circuits simultaneously by using a single switch. This allows for more complex circuit designs than would be possible with a simple switch.

When a relay is used in a circuit, it is typically placed between the power source and the load. The load is the component of the circuit that consumes power, such as a light bulb or motor. The relay itself does not consume power when it is inactive; however, when the relay is activated, it will use power to close the switch and allow current to flow through the circuit.

Relays are classified according to their operating principle, the number of contacts they have, and the voltage and current ratings of the contacts. The most common type of relay is the electromagnetic relay, which uses an electromagnet to operate the switch. Other types of relays include reed relays, mercury-wetted relays, and solid-state relays.

Relays are available in a wide variety of sizes and configurations. The size of a relay is typically defined by its mounting footprint, which is the distance between the screw holes on the bottom of the relay. The most common sizes are 12mm, 17mm, 25mm, 30mm, and 40mm. The number of contacts a relay has is typically 2, 4, or 8.

The voltage and current ratings of the contacts are important to consider when selecting a relay for a particular application. The voltage rating is the maximum amount of voltage that can be applied to the contacts without damaging the relay. The current rating is the maximum amount of current that can flow through the contacts without damaging the relay. When selecting a relay for a particular application, it is important to choose one with the appropriate voltage and current ratings for the circuit.

Benefits:

  • Can be used to isolate two sections of a circuit electrically
  • Can be used to make or break multiple circuits simultaneously by using a single switch
  • Can be controlled remotely which allows relays to be used in applications where it is not possible or convenient to use

Why You Should Install A New Relay

  • Help to improve the performance of your system and make it more reliable
  • Have a higher voltage and current rating which can be important in some applications
  • Offer features that are not available on older models
