When electricity flows through the relay coil, it creates a magnetic field.
This magnetic field pulls a metal contact inside the relay, causing the switch to change position.
When power to the coil is removed, a spring returns the contact back to its normal position.
Main parts of a relay
Coil – produces magnetism when energized
Contacts – open or close the circuit
Common (COM) – moving contact
Normally Open (NO) – open before coil is energized
Normally Closed (NC) – closed before coil is energized
How it works step by step
Power is supplied to the relay coil.
The coil becomes an electromagnet.
The magnetic force pulls the contact arm.
The contacts change state:
NO contact closes
NC contact opens
The load device turns ON or OFF.
When coil power stops, the contacts return to normal.
Example
A small switch can use a relay to control:
Water pumps
Motors
Lights
Air conditioners
Industrial machines
For example:
A float switch sends a small signal to the relay.
The relay then switches ON a large water pump safely.
