Relay needed

[jwilson56]

Does anyone know where to get a small 110V relay (of coarse inexpensive)? Current handling for the contacts is in milliamps.

Are you triggering the relay coil with 120 VAC or are you switching 120 VAC through the contacts??

Hi John;

Look at the "G2R" series HERE.

I would also suggest looking into the PF8 digital input (contact closure) module for your application shown HERE.

He wants to trigger the relay with 120 VAC (coil rated for 120 VAC).

To avoid mixing high and low voltage wiring I usually wire an outlet into the contol circuit. I plug a $3 12V wall wart into the outlet and wire the wall wart to an Elk 12V relay. This keeps the wiring nice and legal and provides a visual indicator by way of the LED on the Elk relay.
