Electromechanical components such as relays and switches often must undergo endurance tests that verify their reliability and safety. Regulatory standards typically have compliance criteria that ...

This new three -phase test instrument addresses the increasing need for three-phase testing capability in electrical distribution substations, renewable power generation stations and industrial ...

Megger’s new SMRT 36 smart protective relay test set is suited not only for testing today’s installations and legacy plant, but also for meeting the future challenges associated with testing the smart ...

A new series of relays, called Interfacers by developer, Releco, a unit of Turck Inc., are more flexible and have features designed to minimize downtime. Interface relays connect computers and PLC ...

Relay testing is one of those challenging areas where there never seems to be a shortage of questions. The technology adopted in both the relays themselves and in the equipment used to test them is ...

Relays are common electromechanical devices in electrical circuits that come in two types: either latched or non-latched. Latched relays retain their last switch position even after complete power ...

Panasonic has set up two European relay test laboratories, both near Munich, which will also analyse the company’s other electromechanical products. “The equipment in the labs comprises high-voltage, ...

Distributed generation, also known as embedded generation, is a hot topic at the moment. With more and more generation being connected to the network, those concerned with its stability have to deal ...

We like our nice, safe, 5V prototyping projects where the only thing that might get fried is a chip. But there are times when you want to switch appliances for one reason or another and then you’re ...

The 78 series 10-A relays are available with a variety of options, including a push-to-test button and a green LED status lamp. The ice-cube-style industrial relays use quick-connect, plug-in/solder ...
