    A relay Electromechanical relay principle Electromechanical relay schematic showing a control coil, four pairs of normally open and one pair of normally closed contacts An automotive-style miniature relay with the dust cover taken off. A relay is an electrically operated switch. It consists of a set of input terminals for a single or multiple ...

  3. Relay logic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relay_logic

    A relay logic circuit is an electrical network consisting of lines, or rungs, in which each line or rung must have continuity to enable the output device. A typical circuit consists of a number of rungs, with each rung controlling an output. This output is controlled by a combination of input or output conditions, such as input switches and ...

    Reed switch. (from top) Single-pole reed switch, four-pole reed switch and single-pole reed relay. Scale in centimeters. Reed switch, contact detail. Commonly-used circuit symbol. Operation of the reed switch. The reed switch[i] is an electromechanical switch operated by an applied magnetic field. It was invented in 1922 by professor Valentin ...

  5. Protective relay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protective_relay

    The relays are in round glass cases. The rectangular devices are test connection blocks, used for testing and isolation of instrument transformer circuits. In electrical engineering, a protective relay is a relay device designed to trip a circuit breaker when a fault is detected. [1]: 4 The first protective relays were electromagnetic devices ...

  6. Electromechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromechanics

    Electromechanics. A relay is a common electro-mechanical device. Electromechanics[1][2][3][4] combines processes and procedures drawn from electrical engineering and mechanical engineering. Electromechanics focuses on the interaction of electrical and mechanical systems as a whole and how the two systems interact with each other.

  7. Electrical contact - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_contact

    An electromagnetic relay with a pair of contacts. An electrical contact is an electrical circuit component found in electrical switches, relays, connectors and circuit breakers. [1] Each contact is a piece of electrically conductive material, typically metal. When a pair of contacts touch, they can pass an electrical current with a certain ...

  8. Solid-state relay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid-state_relay

    Solid-state relay. A solid state relay (SSR) is an electronic switching device that switches on or off when an external voltage (AC or DC) is applied across its control terminals. They serve the same function as an electromechanical relay, but solid-state electronics contain no moving parts and have a longer operational lifetime.

    He invented a precursor to the electric doorbell (specifically a bell that could be rung at a distance via an electric wire, 1831) [7] and electric relay (1835). [8] His work on the electromagnetic relay was the basis of the practical electrical telegraph, invented separately by Samuel F. B. Morse and Sir Charles Wheatstone.
