Friends
I have a AC relay (OMRON Model MK3P-I).This is a tripple pole-tripple throw. Contacts are rated at 10Amps.I'm not very familier with AC relays & its operation. I have no problem of identifying the pin connections but have few quetions.
1. When conected to a AC line won't the relay goes no/off,on/off due to the positive and negative half cycles of the AC. Do I have to connect a diode in series with the coil, to cut one half of the AC cycle.
2. What is the normal pull in voltage of a AC relay.
3. Can this be directly connected to a normal AC power line or do I have to drop the voltage.(Coil is rated @ 240VAC)
4. Can anybody suggest a link or site to get more info. on OMRON relays
Have a nice Day :!:
