Summary

The electrical system is a fundamental part of every vehicle. Relays and contactors play an important role in the switching of applications and as part of the electrical safety concept. The properties of electromechanical relays sometimes differ significantly from those of semiconductors. Many developers of electrical circuits are very familiar with semiconductors but are not well-versed in the features of electromechanical relays and contactors. The seminar offers an insight into relay technology and the application of switching and protecting components in the vehicle’s safety concept in aspect of functional safety requirements acc. the ISO 26262.
