4.1.7.2 Relay Output Circuit
Relay terminals have no polarity. They can be used with alternating current that passes through a load, or with
direct current that passes through a load. The maximum current that can pass through every relay terminal is
2 A, and refer to each product specification for the maximum current that can pass through every common
terminal. The lifetime of a relay terminal varies with the working voltage, the load type (the power factor cosψ),
and the current passing through the terminal. The relation is shown in the life cycle curve below.
