Relays are for cable testers, mixed-signal and semiconductor testers, backplane testers, high-voltage instrumentation, and in-circuit test equipment. CLACTON-ON-SEA, England – Pickering Electronics ...

IEC 61850 is the new international communication standard for substations. The main goal of 61850 is to obtain interoperability between different protective devices from different vendors. IEC 61850 ...

RelayLabTest, a new test software from OMICRON, enables users to assess the overall performance of protection devices under realistic operating conditions. Test signals are calculated on the basis of ...

Proper selection and effective testing can increase contact reliability in the end product while reducing the overall cost of using relays. Who said relays are pass�? While electromechanical relays ...

As test systems become more densely packed, reducing relay size is only part of the challenge. In low-level measurement ...

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, ...

This white paper describes Coto's reliability testing of its Coto Classic reed relay and molded reed switches. For many switching applications reed relays remain the best solution, particularly when ...

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 ...

Perhaps the most important feature introduced by microprocessor relays is that of continuous self-supervision. One of the classical problems of the older protection relays lies in the absence of any ...
