Que1: Explain about Relay.
Solution:Arelayisanelectricallyoperatedswitch.Itconsistsofasetofinput
terminalsforasingleormultiplecontrolsignals,andasetofoperatingcontact
terminals.Theswitchmayhaveanynumberofcontactsinmultiplecontactforms,
suchasmakecontacts,breakcontacts,orcombinationsthereof.

This is a drawing of an energized relay. When a
voltage is applied to the electromagnet coil the
current flowing in the coil produces magnetic
energy in the iron core which pulls the armature
down. When the armature pulls down the COM
contactswitches from NC to NO.

Que5: Explain on-delay and off-delay timer.
Solution:
On-delayTimer:
Ex:WhentheS1switchisonthe
lubricantpump(LP)willstart
immediately,butgrindingmachine(GM)
willstartafterpresettime(say8Sec)of
timer.HereTisOn-delayTimer.
Off–DelayTimer:
Ex:Inacarwhenkey(Switch)ison
bothEngine(E)andfanareonattime.
Whenkeyisoff,theenginewilloff
immediatelybutfan(F)willoffafter
presettimeoftimer(Say15Sec).
