Hi guys new here like to say hello....
i gotta question and just wanting to make sure that this will work properly or if not you could point me in the direction i need to go
im using 24v ac to switch a 12v relay for something in for irrigation system this is what i was figuring out
there is going to be a 12v input will trun to the positive input on the relay
the ground will also run into the relay and also to the output of the box
now this is where im asking for your opinion
also coming in the box is a 24vac line
i was gonna run it to a bridge rectifier full wave and then put a 12v zener diode on the positive out and the negative out
run the negative to the 12v ground thats already in the box and then run the 12v positive to the switching terminal on the relay.
if my explaination is to confusing ill make a schematic for you to see in microsoft paint...
thanks for any of your opinions in advance
