What is relay ? | how relay works ?

 

HELLO FRIENDS.

 

Relay

 

A relay is an electrically operated switch. Relays use an electro magnet to operate a switching mechanism mechanically .

Relays are used where it is necessary to control a circuit by a low-power signal (with complete electrical isolation between control and controlled circuits)

 

You can see the schematic diagram of a relay and an image of a real relay below.

 



NC—Normally Closed,

NO—Normally Open.

A   and  B  should be connected to battery or a DC source.

 

NO  NC  & COMMON, is a switch (SPDT).

A & B  are the two terminal of coil (which is used as electro-magnet).

When supply is given to A & B coil works as magnet and pull the shaft to switch (NC to OPEN, & NO to CLOSE) as switch do.

Relay comes in variety of ratings and sizes, Generally a 5volt relay, 240VAC/ 7Amp is enough for a hobbyist. As it can drive almost all home appliances.

 

Relays are also used for sensing purposes.

For ex:- buchholz relay, for fault detection in power transformers.
