Relays are electromechanical devices that use a magnetic solenoid to actual a switch. When current is passed through the solenoid coil, it produces a magnetic field. The magnetic field is strengthened ...

Testing relays is both an art and a science. As relay technicians inevitably learn in the field, pure theory-based understanding of protective relays is not nearly enough for the real-world situations ...

An industry expert discusses use of the Weibull distribution for life testing electromechanical relays. Life tests for electro-mechanical relays can be set up using relatively small sample sizes, ...

The essence of the circuit is for the input of tone and signal to provide an activation for the relay switch. Relay – an electrically operated switch where the current flowing through the coil of the ...

Ideally a test engineer would connect a separate instrument to each test point of a Device Undergoing Test (DUT), thereby providing the highest performance and most accurate measurements. But this is ...

Smaller, lighter and with a higher output power than any other comparable single-phase protective relay test instrument, Megger’s new SMRT1 smart protective relay test set is suited not only for ...

Pickering Interfaces has announced a range of PXI and PXIe microwave relay modules capable of switching signals up to 110GHz in 50Ω. They will be reveals for the first time at IMS in San Diego next ...
