NounSingular relay Plural relays relay (plural relays)
From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. A relay is an electrically operated switch. Many relays use an electromagnet to operate a switching mechanism, but other operating principles are also used. Relays find applications where it is necessary to control a circuit by a low-power signal, or where several circuits must be controlled by one signal. The first relays were used in long distance telegraph circuits, repeating the signal coming in from one circuit and re-transmitting it to another. Relays found extensive use in telephone exchanges and early computers to perform logical operations. A type of relay that can handle the high power required to directly drive an electric motor is called a contactor. Solid-state relays control power circuits with no moving parts, instead using a semiconductor device triggered by light to perform switching. Relays with calibrated operating characteristics and sometimes multiple operating coils are used to protect electrical circuits from overload or faults; in modern electric power systems these functions are performed by digital instruments still called "protection relays".

GNU Free Documentation License How to override the compressor relay on my 99 honda civic? Q. My compressor keeps kicking on and off every few seconds and it is full of refrigerant. I want to override the relay on my 99 honda civic so that the compressor will not kick off. Thanks! Asked by jonnyj - Wed Jul 23 14:37:55 2008 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. It is either not full or the pressure switch on the reciever drier is bad. Possibly some other mechanical malfunction such as restriction on low side cutting off compressor. do not bypass or you will be replacing compressor due to failure from lack opf lubrication. Put a set of A/C guages on it at idle pressure should be steady somewhere around 200 psi high (red) side and 40 psi low side. If low side drops down to 25 or less and compressor cuts off AND high side is low add refrigerant. If high side is normal OR high and Low is LOW then their is a restriction in system. Compressor is cutting off as a safety feature to insure it gets lube, lubrication come INTO compressor from low side. if their is a restriction or pressure is low then… [cont.] Answered by 25 years experience! - Wed Jul 23 14:49:34 2008 What is the relay in the fan of a car explain ? Q. I just asked a question about my fan problem in my 95 Lumina I would like an in depth answer on what a relay unit is and if I could use the one from my other 95 lumina to replace it? Asked by tornmusik - Mon Sep 3 13:32:42 2007 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. A relay is a simple electrical device that is normally open or closed and is triggred by power being applied. Yes they are interchangable as long as they can handle the same amprage. If you move it from the same model car to another that is used for the same reason then it will work. Answered by HP - Mon Sep 3 13:41:27 2007 What is the maximum tolerable probability of failure for each relay?
Q. Acritical circuit in a communication network relies on a set of 8 identical relays. If any one of the relays fails, it will disrupt the entire network, The design engineer must ensure a 90% probability that the network will not fail over a five year period. What is the maximum tolerable probability of failure for each relay? Answer is 1.3% Asked by Shaily - Tue Oct 7 16:47:27 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. Given a relay, it has probability X of failing. So, the probability that none fails is (1 - X)^8. We want that to be greter than 0.90: (1 - X)^8 >= 0.900 1 - X >= 0.987 X <= 0.013 (= 1.3%) Answered by Jotomicron - Tue Oct 7 17:00:04 2008 From Yahoo Answer Search: "relay"  news.google.com The Desert Sun The organization is currently seeking volunteers to help out the relay committee.
