capacitance relay

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A relay circuit that operates from a small change in its own capacitance. It consists of an RF oscillator whose tank capacitance is very low. When a finger is brought near the circuit’s short pickup ...

coaxial relay

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A relay designed to connect and disconnect, or to interchange, coaxial cables in a transmission line without disturbing the characteristic impedance of the line.

ac relay

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A relay designed to operate on alternating current without chattering or vibrating.

dc relay

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A relay having a simple coil and core system for closure by direct current, which can be rectified ac.

dc overvoltage relay

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A relay or relay circuit actuated as a result of the dc coil voltage rising above a specified level. Compare dc undervoltage relay.

dc overcurrent relay

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A relay or relay circuit actuated by dc coil current rising above a specified level. Compare dc undercurrent relay.

dc undercurrent relay

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A relay or relay circuit that is actuated as a result of the dc coil current dropping below a specified level. Compare dc overcurrent relay.
