Snubber Circuits for Protecting Relay Contacts from Arcing

If only a capacitor is connected across the relay contacts, the setup is extremely efficient to reduce arcing. However, because of the huge electrical charge stored in the capacitor when the contacts are open, the current flows to the contacts again when they are closed. Over time, this will cause contact welding.

Induction Suppression Capacitors

The power supply used to supply power to the board should not be shared with inductive loads. For instance, you should never use a single power supply to power a the board and a 12V DC Motor. Doing so will introduce extremely high-voltage spikes that will damage the logic and power regulation portions of the board, and in many cases, the board ...

How to make a relay ON for few seconds after power goes OFF?

A 12 volt relay might have a coil resistance of 1000 ohms and the relay might drop-out when the coil voltage reaches (say) 6 volts. This means the voltage shouldn''t fall by more than 6 volts in ten seconds. That''s a $dfrac{dv}{dt}$ of 0.6. If the current needed to sustain the relay is 6 volts/1000 ohm that is 6 mA hence: -

A Start or Run Capacitor can be combined into one capacitor called a Dual Capacitor with three leads but can be split between two separate capacitors. The Start Capacitor gives a fan motor the torque it needs to start spinning then stops, while the Run capacitor stays on, giving the motor extra torque when needed.

Snubber Circuits for Protecting Relay Contacts from Arcing

How to Select the Varistor Type To select a good varistor, first, you must make sure the cut-off voltage V C is multiplied with √2. Then, the value must be checked if it is more than 1.5 times the supply voltage. Keep in mind that setting the V C too high is not good as its efficiency will be reduced thus fails to cut off high voltages.
