At its core, a Relay Control System utilizes electromagnetic switches, known as relays, to control the operation of electrical circuits. These relays act as intermediaries; they enable a low-power signal to control a high-power device, ensuring that the systems operate safely and efficiently. The basic components of a relay control system include input devices (sensors and switches), a controller (such as a programmable logic controller or PLC), relays, and output devices (motors, lights, heaters, etc.).

    How Does a Relay Control System Work?

    The functioning of a Relay Control System is relatively straightforward. It begins with input devices that detect specific conditions, like temperature or pressure changes. These devices send signals to the controller. The controller interprets these signals based on pre-defined logic and determines the necessary action.
