Relay characteristics parameters terminology
1.Insulation resistance: it is the impedence when the conductors insulated with insulating material are applied to voltage and it is generally shown in "MΩ". The speculated voltage discribed above are general 500Vd.c.(or 250Vd.c.). 2.Dielectric strength: it is the voltage value when, within the speculated time, the conductors insulated with insulated material are applied to the voltage and the leakage current is less than the speculated current. The certain voltage above generally is the effective value of AC voltage and unless otherwise stated, the leakage current is generally less than 1mA. 3.Operation time: it refers to, with the relay in the released state, the elapsed time from the initial application of power to the coil, till the closure of the normal open contacts. It does not include any bounce time, and expressed in "ms". 4.Release time: it refers to, with the relay in the operation state, the elapsed time from the initial removal of coil
