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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

A switch-matrix board that routes any of eight programmable voltage signals to any of 96 output pins. The board generates digital patterns up to 20 MHz and 30 kV and has 36 Mbytes of memory. Four ...

The reed relay was invented in 1936 by Bell Telephone Laboratories. Since that time, it has gradually evolved from very large, relatively crude parts to the small, ultra-reliable parts we have today.

GOOSE Messaging (Generic Object-Oriented Substation Events) is the most used aspect of 61850. Replace copper wires with digital one, turn that Lock Out Relay (LOR) into a latch bit in a relay and send ...

IDEC Corporation has enhanced their popular HW series of 22mm switches and pilot lights, as well as the SJ/SU series of relay sockets, with new options for push-in wiring technology, continuing the ...
