  2. Relay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relay

    A small cradle relay often used in electronics. The "cradle" term refers to the shape of the relay's armature. If the relay is driving a large, or especially a reactive load, there may be a similar problem of surge currents around the relay output contacts. In this case a snubber circuit (a capacitor and resistor in series) across the contacts ...

  3. Mercury relay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury_relay

    Normally closed mercury relay, with coil around top of tube and adjustable angle. A mercury relay (mercury displacement relay, mercury contactor) is a relay that uses mercury as the switching element. They are used as high-current switches or contactors, where contact erosion from constant cycling would be a problem for conventional relay contacts.

  4. Armature (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armature_(electrical)

    Armature reaction is essential in amplidyne rotating amplifiers. Armature reaction drop is the effect of a magnetic field on the distribution of the flux under main poles of a generator. [5] Since an armature is wound with coils of wire, a magnetic field is set up in the armature whenever a current flows in the coils.

  5. Atrioventricular node - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atrioventricular_node

    The blood supply of the AV node is from the atrioventricular nodal branch.The origin of this artery is most commonly (80–90% of hearts) a branch of the right coronary artery, with the remainder originating from the left circumflex artery.

  6. Protective relay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protective_relay

    "Armature"-type relays have a pivoted lever supported on a hinge [12] or knife-edge pivot, which carries a moving contact. These relays may work on either alternating or direct current, but for alternating current, a shading coil on the pole [9]: 14 is used to maintain contact force throughout the alternating current cycle. Because the air gap ...

  7. Stepping switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stepping_switch

    In electrical engineering, a stepping switch or stepping relay, also known as a uniselector, is an electromechanical device that switches an input signal path to one of several possible output paths, directed by a train of electrical pulses. The major use of stepping switches was in early automatic telephone exchanges to route telephone calls ...

  9. Reed relay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reed_relay

    A reed relay [i] is a type of relay that uses an electromagnet to control one or more reed switches. The contacts are of magnetic material and the electromagnet acts directly on them without requiring an armature to move them.
