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 ...

The cost of component failures continues to increase as electronic products become more complex. Most component replacement costs are associated with marginal devices that become intermittent or fail ...

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 ...

Production test of a finished electronic product often involves two techniques: in-circuit test (ICT) and functional component test (FCT). The ICT technique examines a non-powered circuit board to ...

The objective of protective relays and protective schemes is to protect electrical equipment such as transformers, lines, cables, bus bars, etc. during abnormal system conditions. Hence, protective ...
