Relay Switch
A relay is a switch controlled by an electromagnet.
A coil of wire:
• carrying a current = magnet
• with no current = non magnet
Symbol:
Relay
Example of Relay Use
A high voltage mains motor is switched on when switch S is closed.
The small current in the 9V circuit makes the electromagnet become
magnetic.
This closes the switch and starts the motor.

Reed Relay
The reed relay uses a permanent magnet to open or close a switch.
This type of relay is used in burglar alarm systems to detect when
a door is opened.
Experiment
When the door is closed the magnet is close to the reed relay and
switch S is open.
When the door is opened, the magnet moves away from the relay,
causing switch S to close setting off the alarm.

Solenoid
A solenoid is a coil of wire surrounding a metal rod.
It is an electromagnetic device that moves a metal rod backwards
and forwards.
Examples of Solenoid Use
• car central locking
• safe locks
• steering on radio controlled cars
• railway points

Calculating Size of Resistor
The resistor and LED are in series.
So the voltage across the resistor and the voltage across the LED
must add up to give the supply voltage.
