Relays are electrical switches that turn machinery and devices on or off. A relay is an electromechanical device that uses an electromagnet to open or close a switch. The circuit that powers the electromagnet s coil is completely separate from the circuit that is switched on or off by the relay s switch so it s possible to use a relay whose coil requires just a few volts to turn a line voltage circuit on or off.

A classic example is the system used to start a car when someone turns an ignition key the ignition does not interact directly with the car battery instead it activates a relay which passes the signal on so that the car can start. The switch may have any number of contacts in multiple contact forms such as make contacts break contacts or combinations thereof. A relay is an electrically operated switch it consists of a set of input terminals for a single or multiple control signals and a set of operating contact terminals. Our relays can be supplied with a variety of wiring diagrams terminals coils and contact arrangements many of which we ve depicted on this website.
