Not long after I began contributing to Hagerty eight years ago, I wrote a detailed four-part piece on electrical relays and how they work in cars. You can still find the articles here (Part I: Why We ...

Acceptable ohm reading for a good current relay. One type of starting relay used on fractional-horsepower compressors is the current relay. This type of starting relay uses the initial high inrush ...

One of the frustrating challenges in integrating systems is interfacing an existing subsystem with a new or different subsystem. In cases where the input/output ...

Use of the powerful event reports can increase system reliability, lower maintenance costs, and reduce the potential for system damage and resulting outages. Today’s microprocessor-based relays ...

Many low and medium temperature single-phase compressors require some type of external relay to assist in the starting of its motor. The purpose of this relay is to remove the motor’s start winding, ...
