black-relay_web.jpg A relay is an electrical device opening and closing one or more contact circuits under control of another electrical circuit.

The realy was invented by Joseph Henry in 1835 and, considering mainly its basic concept, it looks like a switch operated via a solenoid in stead of manually.
