Siemens APT Relays – classified by their operating principle or structural characteristics
(1) Electromagnetic relay: an electrical relay that works by using the suction force generated by the current in the input circuit between the electromagnet core and the armature.
(2) Solid relay: refers to a kind of relay in which electronic components perform their functions without mechanical motion components, and the input and output are isolated.

Siemens APT Relays – The difference between solid state relays and intermediate relays
First, the solid-state relay has no contacts and coils in the structure, which can be opened and closed at a high frequency and will not produce sparks, and has a long service life;
Second, the intermediate relay is generally only used for the control loop, and cannot work with load, and will make a "pop" sound when it is sucked in;

Siemens APT relay - the use of solid state relay pay attention to five major matters
1. The resistive load should not exceed 60% of the rated current;
2. Overcurrent and load short circuit may cause permanent failure of the internal thyristor in SSR, so it is necessary to install a fuse or air switch, and a fuse can be used if the capacity is small;
3、 ...

Siemens APT current transformers – factors influencing the error of current transformers
(1) The influence of the internal resistance R2 and leakage impedance X2 of the secondary coil on the error: when R2 increases, the specific difference and angular difference increase; As X2 increases, the specific difference increases, but the angular difference decreases. Therefore, to improve the error, R2 and the appropriate X2 value should be minimized. Due to the secondary coil internal resistance R2 and leakage ...

Siemens APT current transformer – the difference between the ratio on a current transformer and the ratio on a watt-hour meter
1. Differences in use
The conversion ratio of the current transformer is inconsistent with the transformation ratio of the ammeter, which will lead to the inability to use the displayed value of the ammeter directly, and the proportional conversion must be carried out;
If the transformer of ratio 5 is used on the meter of ratio 1, the secondary current of CT will generally exceed 1A, so that the transformer of 5 is used on a meter of 1 ratio. Than 1 ...

Features of Siemens APT Relays – AC Relays
1. Since the current through the AC electromagnetic relay is a changing alternating current, the magnetic flux in the magnetic circuit also changes with the alternation (sinusoidal law instead of straight line law). The suction force of the armature is varied between 0 and the maximum, so the suction of the AC electromagnetic relay is pulsating, variing.

Siemens APT Relays – How to Choose the Right Power Relay
1. Measure the resistance of the contact
Use the resistance level of the universal meter to measure the resistance of the normally closed contact and the moving point, and its resistance value should be 0, (the contact resistance value can be measured in a more accurate way within 100 milliohms); The resistance between the normally open contact and the moving point is infinite. From this, it can be distinguished which is a normally closed contact ...
