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 ...

To simplify complex relay testing, the Megger Protective Relay Test Set (MPRT) provides built-in test routines, a touch-screen interface, and built-in transducer test capabilities. The unit displays ...

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 ...

OMRON Electronic Components Europe has introduced a new range of G3VM MOSFET relays designed to deliver faster switching ...

MPower from Manta Test Systems is a comprehensive protection test management, execution, reporting and analysis software package. It automates tests for all types of protection and control relays. It ...

Complying with reliability standards requires considerable resource planning. The tools and suggestions provided here may help engineers conform to new generator relay loadability requirements. But ...

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 ...

Electromechanical relays can be manufactured with high-frequency RF characteristics that allow them to pass and switch signals in the 7-GHz range and beyond with the proper packaging. Two key RF ...
