Question

Can any of MY2 General-purpose Relays switch 10 A at 100 VAC?

Answer



The maximum contact current for MY2 Series is 5 A. Consider using an LY2 Series General-purpose Relays for operation at 10 A.

LY2 Series have the following contact ratings. Switching at 10 A is possible with 110-VAC or 24-VDC resistive loads. If using an inductive load, 7.5 A at 110 VAC or 5 A at 24 VDC can be used.
