What is the difference between Relay and Contactor

Answer Posted / francesco

The word relay comes from very old times and was used to call a set of horses that pull a car, when a relay of horses got tired they switch it for a fresh one. In electricity the use of a relay is the same, you use a relay to switch between loads or between sources, You have one terminal with two possibilities, in a NC relay if not powered you're using one contact and when the relay is powered you use the other, or backwards if the relay is a NO. A contactor only has one in and one out so in a NO contactor when not energized the contacts are open and when energized the contacts are closed or backwards if the contactors is NC.
So relay has one in and two out possibilities, contactor has one in one out.
