    I was wondering kung pwede i-series ang 2 relay. Masusunog ba electrical pag ganun? Kung hindi, lalakas ba ang output o parehas lang sa 1 relay? TY.

    ang relay po ay parang switch lang po, parang circuit breaker, kaya useless to series it naman.. unless may special purpose...

    if you just need a bigger ampherage, just buy high-ampherage relay..

    Ah ganun. I always thought na pampalakas ng current ang relay. Dati kasi nagpalit ako ng stock na busina without adding a relay, ayun mahina. Nung dinala ko sa electrician nilagyan niya ng relay para raw lumakas.

    this is a very good post by kiper in the blue vision or all weather thread. isketi, the last link is about relays and it is very informative.

    a relay is like a secondary switch..pag ni on mo, say, your headlights, mag-o-on ang relay which switches on and then draws its power from a live wire(from battery) to the headlights...parang ang labo ng post ko..antok na

    Agree that it is a switch. But being one, it has an operating current rating. This means that if you put one in series with the other, then you are not increasing your current(A) capacity, probably defeating your purpose of using 2 relays.

    It is better if you place one in parallel with the other. Although this is not ideally 'desirable' since one will switch faster by a few msec than the other.... In general, though, it will work with your application.

    However, I suggest that you just buy a relay with a higher current rating.

    relay is just an electrical switch sir, kya po lumakas yung busina mo after lagyan ng relay is because parang nkdirect connected yung busina mo sa battery, and yung lumang wiring eh ginamit nalng for switching the relay. kasi po pag-walang relay yung current going to your horn eh parang ng-around the world pa before it reaches the horn terminal, and wires have resistance and it is directly proportional sa length ng wires so paghumaba ang wire taas ang resistance then pag-mataas ang resistance mababa ang current...

    tama si speed_pjay

Pwede kaya i-series ang dalawang relay?
