Different Types of Relay.
Depending on the operating principle and structural features relays are of different types such
as electromagnetic relays, thermal relays, power varied relays, multi-dimensional relays,
and so on, with varied ratings, sizes and applications.
This video main aim is to give a brief idea about various relays that are employed for
a wide variety of control applications.
Some of these relays are described this video.
Electromagnetic Relays.
These relays are constructed with electrical, mechanical and magnetic components, and have
operating coil and mechanical contacts.
Therefore, when the coil gets activated by a supply system, these mechanical contacts
gets opened or closed.
DC and AC Relays.
Both AC and DC relays work on the same principle as electromagnetic induction, but the construction
is somewhat differentiated and also depends on the application for which these relays
are selected.
DC relays are employed with a freewheeling diode to de-energize the coil, and the AC
relays uses laminated cores to prevent eddy current losses.
Attraction Type Electromagnetic Relays.
These relays can work with both AC and DC supply and attract a metal bar or a piece
of metal when power is supplied to the coil.
This can be a plunger being drawn towards the solenoid or an armature being attracted
towards the poles of an electromagnet as shown in the figure.
These relays don't have any time delays so these are used for instantaneous operation.
Induction Type Relays.
These are used as protective relays in AC systems alone and are usable with DC systems.
The actuating force for contacts movement is developed by a moving conductor that may
be a disc or a cup, through the interaction of electromagnetic fluxes due to fault currents.
These are of several types like shaded pole, watt-hour and induction cup structures and
are mostly used as directional relays in power-system protection and also for high-speed switching
operation applications.
Magnetic Latching Relays.
These relays use permanent magnet or parts with a high remittance to remain the armature
at the same point as the coil is electrified when the coil power source is taken away.
Solid State Relays.
Solid State uses solid state components to perform the switching operation without moving
any parts.
Since the control energy required is much lower compared with the output power to be
controlled by this relay that results the power gain higher when compared to the electromagnetic
relays.
These are of different types: reed relay coupled SSR, transformer coupled SSR, photo-coupled
SSR, and so on.
The above figure shows a photo coupled SSR where the control signal is applied by LED
and it is detected by a photo-sensitive semiconductor device.
The output from this photo detector is used to trigger the gate of TRIAC or SCR that switches
the load.
Hybrid Relays.
These relays are composed of electromagnetic relays and electronic components.
Usually, the input part contains the electronic circuitry that performs rectification and
the other control functions, and the output part include electromagnetic relay.
Thermal Relay.
These relays are based on the effects of heat, which means - the rise in the ambient temperature
from the limit, directs the contacts to switch from one position to other.
These are mainly used in motor protection and consist of bimetallic elements like temperature
sensors as well as control elements.
Thermal overload relays are the best examples of these relays.
Reed Relay.
Reed Relays consist of a pair of magnetic strips (also called as reed) that is sealed
within a glass tube.
This reed acts as both an armature and a contact blade.
The magnetic field applied to the coil is wrapped around this tube that makes these
reeds move so that switching operation is performed.
Relays are also available with different pin configurations like 3 pin, 4 pin and 5 pin
relays.
The ways in which these relays are operated is shown in the below figure.
Switching contacts can be SPST, SPDT, DPST and DPDT types.
Some of the relays are normally open (NO) type and the other are normally closed (NC)
types.

Shiva Untold - Love and Loss of Sati - Sadhguru - Duration: 3:01.
(Sadhguru): Shiva's love for Sati was like I was just now telling,
when we were in the Kailash trip
people became weepy about what they missed.
They didn't miss anything,
but they felt they missed.
So it's one of those moments when you yield.
So Shiva's love for Sati is just like that –
it's one of those moments where he gave in
to the ways of emotion and to the ways of life.
That was not an eventual happening in his life,
that was just a small happening in his life.
It is his silence which is of utmost significance to us.
It is his silence which is of greatest value to us,
not his romance,
not his marriage,
not his wife's death –
not these things.
But how to talk about his silence? (Laughs)
There is no way to talk about his silence.
now that you have brought up the question. (Laughs)
Yes,
he went through all the throes of
romance and the death and the grief and the works.
But the moment he set it down, he simply sat there still, unmoved,
as if nothing had ever happened to him… nothing...
nothing had happened to him at all.
And in fact nothing had happened to him,
and nothing happens to anybody for that matter.
It is just that because
our psychological and emotional structures are such that
it is designed for us to enjoy the juice of life.
But unfortunately most people don't drink the juice of life,
they drown in the juice of life.
So Shiva also allowed himself that luxury from some moment.
When he thought it's enough,
he came out of it and sat there completely conscious
and in a different state.
So don't ever think that was the eventual happening.
That was just a small happening in his life and that was fine.
That made him kind of more human friendly
because people could relate to him
because he also grieved. (Laughs)
That gives some joy to all the people who are in different levels of misery,
that Shiva also suffered for a certain period of time.
But you need to understand it's just one of those moments
when he has given into the process of life.
But the moment he wants to stop it, he stops it immediately
and sits there untouched by any of these things.

Shiva Untold - Yogi, not a Philosopher - Sadhguru - Duration: 1:58.
(Sadhguru): Shiva is not a philosopher,
he's a yogi.
When I say he is not a philosopher…,
see it's very easy to be philosophical.
In fact,
the less you know,
the more the chances that you will become philosophical.
It's very easy to become a philosopher.
You just have to read a couple of books and misunderstand them,
you can become a philosopher. (Laughs)
The reason why you're talking about something that is written in a book
is because you have not perceived,
grasped life in any depth.
If you had even read a single page of this vast existence,
all your life you would be talking only that.
There wouldn't be time to talk about anything else.
So Shiva is a yogi,
purely existential,
not philosophical,
not intellectual.
This is not something that you can understand.
This is not something that you have to be convinced about.
This is not something that you have to agree with.
This is something that you learn to relate with.
If you can relate to it and experiment with it,
it will do miraculous things for you.

2016 | Stand Out Books of This Year [CC] - Duration: 12:00.
Hi, BookTube. It's Sylwia. So, I'm really, really
struggling this year about making a
favorites of 2016 video. What I did in
the last two years was that I would kind
of show you a flashback episode of
all my reviews of my favorite books but
this year i have not been able to create
a list of favorite books. The closest
I've been able to do for you is to come
up with a list of "standout" books, so
books that "stood out" the most for me
this year. I'm sorry. That's the best i
can do. I don't consider all of these
favorites. i consider a lot of them
favorites, though, but for some reason I'm
just uncomfortable saying that this year.
I don't know what my problem is, but
we're gonna do things a little
differently this year. So I came up with
six categories and I'm going to tell you
the standout books in those categories
and those categories are: fantasy, non-
fiction, literary, out of my comfort zone,
contemporary, and romance. I'm gonna say
it in that order because I feel like
that's the order that you guys want to
see? So we're gonna start off with
fantasy. I loved the Wings of Fire series.
So, I read The Dragon Prophecy, The Lost
Heir, and Hidden Kingdom. This is a
middle-grade violent series about dragon
protagonists. i read the first six
volumes of Fruits Basket which is a
shoujo ~magical~, I guess, series in which
this family is cursed and our
protagonist is the purest cinnamon roll
in the universe, and it makes me cry. I
loved the first two single issues of the
Princeless spinoff Raven the Pirate
Princeess and I love it because it has a
diverse set of characters and the
characters are amazing and I love their
interactions. I loved Harley Quinn: Hot in
the City. this is my absolute favorite
portrayal of Harley Quinn and I've been
a lifelong Harley Quinn fan because she
is a blue-eyed, blonde, mental health
professional, with a history of abusive
relationships. It's like looking in a
mirror. So, Harley Quinn means a lot to me
and this was my favorite portrayal of
her, ever.
I also really enjoyed the first two
volumes of the Ancient Magus' Bride in
which the fantasy is unique, the magical
elements are unique, there's a focus on
the magic less so on romance. There is no
romance,
thus far, even though she's his ~bride~.
I think it's gonna be a slow burn
romance and I'm actually really excited
for it to be very slow because there's
not a lot between them at this time. And
another book that I really don't want to
consider a favorite
but I needed to mention is Written in
Red, the first book in the Others series.
I loved this book even though it is the
most misogynist thing I read this year. I
want to say it is the most problematic,
most misogynist thing I read, but I love
it because it is brilliant
world-building, a glorious slow-burn
romance, and I love the characters even
though they were very two-dimensional,
except for the protagonists, they were
written pretty well. So, that was my
fantasy section. Moving onto my
nonfiction section. I loved The Art of
Pocahontas. So, this is a huge book
describing the development of the film.
There's a lot of photos, a lot of
illustrations.
I know a lot of people buy these Art Of
books to look at the pictures but I
actually read the text and the text was
beautiful. I loved learning about the
creation of this movie. The words were
touching. I think I cried or at least
teared up by reading this book. And I
loved it.
How to Win Friends and Influence People,
if I have not shoved down your throat
yet, I'm gonna do it now. It is amazing,
life-altering, everybody should read it. I
think it was written in the
1920's, you can correct me on
that, but it is about how to communicate,
how to talk to people, what people
actually want from you, so I think this
book is revolutionary. I think it should
be taught in schools from, like, birth
onwards, and it should be reiterated
every year because I think these are the
fundamentals that most of us are missing
and the mistakes that we make in our
lives are because we don't have this
information. But here it is. Here's the
information written very accessibly.
Please take it, and especially if you are
socially anxious, if you have social
phobia, if you have anxiety having to do
with people in any way, or if you're just
socially awkward, so those are two
different things, but if you're either
one of those things, you need to read
this, and then if you're neither of those
things, you need to read this. I also
really liked This Is How by Augusten
Burroughs. I know that Augusten Burroughs is a
very harsh person but I think his
ideologies are interesting to read. There
was a lot that he said that was very
healthy and positive and then there were
some other stuff that he said just
harshly. His, you know, opinions are very intense
and controversial? I don't know if
controversial's the right term. And
Augusten Burroughs is a gay man so if
you want to read some #ownvoices and he
is in recovery from substance abuse
disorder.
Lastly, I loved The Glass Castle. I
recently did my mini-review
of this. I thought it was a very
concisely-writte,n engaging, interesting,
consuming work. And I thought a lot about
poverty. fFr the next section we're going
to talk about literary fiction, so first
of all I re-read A Wrinkle in Time and I
loved every single chapter of it. It is
such a brilliant book. I don't even know
how it can be considered children's or
middle grade. It is like literary gold. I
loved every second of it.
It is one of my favorite books of all
time. I read Beautiful Darkness which is
this very subtle/vague graphic novel
about so many concepts and you read it
and you don't even realize what you're
reading and it's just subtle and so
intelligent and I'm like, in awe of it.
And then it is also gory and tragic in
just the best way, the best most
intentional way. And I just love it so
much. I didn't realize how much I loved
it until time passed and I just kept
thinking about it and learning about it.
It's so good. I also read Shortcomings,
which is realistic and contemporary and
it has characters of color. I think all
the characters are Asian (#ownvoices) and one of the
main side characters is a lesbian and
it's fantastic because all of the
characters are flawed and it makes you
think so much because they're telling
you all of their ideals and some of
their ideals are on point and some of
their experiences are so relatable but
at the same time some of their ideals
are so unenlightened and it kind of
makes you think. It makes you decide "well,
do I agree with this" or "do I disagree
with that?", blah, blah. I cried at the end. I
think I also really loved All My Sons.
This is just a typical, enjoyable classic,
I would say, when people recommend
classics to you, the experience of this
is exactly what I think we're looking
for when we read classics. Not to be
completely vague, but that's that's how I
feel about it. I loved Ask the Passengers,
which is a magical realism YA mostly
contemporar, but I consider it literary
because it was just that well written.
And All Summer- All summer in a Day or
something like that, or All Summer in
One Day, is a four-page short story and
i'm in awe that someone was able to
create a whole story in just four pages
that made me experience various emotions
and live through this story. It was just
such great writing, and I've never read
anything else by Ray Bradbury but I'm so
excited to! For the out of my comfort
zone section I read four books, one of
which i consider a favorite and three of
which i do not, but they definitely stand
out amongst all the books I read this
year. So, the one that I read that is a
favorite of mine that was out of my
comfort zone was The Diviners. This is a
paranormal and historical novel and it's
a bit scary at times, so those are all
three things that I don't like. Those are
not my preferences and yet i devoured
this book and its enormous and I
devoured the sequel and I love them and
all of this because the characters are
incredible. This is a great book for
people- lovers of characters. And I am
still in awe of how she was able to
develop so many subplots that weave
together with one another and with the
main plot. This book is incredible and
the audiobook is the best audio book
I've ever listen to, ever. So, now the
other three standouts in this section
that I don't consider favorites are:
Reconstructing Amelia because this is a
mystery/thriller which is a genre that I
do not enjoy but I genuinely enjoyed the
experience of reading this book and one
of the two protagonists is a lesbian in
it and she's discovering her sexuality
and engaging in her first relationship.
Then Pretty Little Liars. I really, really
enjoyed reading the first four books in
the series which is all I'm going to
read. I love the characters and I thought
this was really well-written. And
lastly, I read Come Closer which is one
of the only horror books that I ever
read, so I'm super proud of myself. That's
why this is making it to the list,
because i was able to read it and
survived it and enjoy it. And that's
really the only reason why it makes it
to the list.
So the next section is contemporary. I
left it for the end, almost, because I
don't feel like a lot of people enjoy
contemporary? But I do, so there's a lot
of books on this list. I love Simon vs.
the Homo Sapiens Agenda, which has a gay
protagonist and his love story and mild
coming out story. I love this because it
was so concisely-written. I still think
about that how there was not one
unnecessary word in this book. That is so
skilled. I'm going to say that all the
time and I'm so looking forward to more
work by Becky Albertalli. I loved If I
Was Your Girl because it was extremely
engaging. I read it in one sitting and I
think it was an important work and it
combined and easy contemporary formula
with realistic events and it was about a
trans girl! I loved The Categorical
Universe of Candice Phee. I read this in
January of this year and I think this is
one of the most underrated works i've
read. I recommend it to everyone. I need
everyone to read it. I thought it was
just a great story. If you like family
dramas, like, about families struggling
with something and overcoming it.
I think this is a middle-grade book but
i loved this family and going with them
and I did not know how things were going
to turn out and I adored it.
I also loved Cut which is about cutting.
It's a very, very short book and this was
a re-read and I loved it just as much.
This has one of my favorite fictional
therapists ever and it's just a great
mental health book. I loved Heroine
Shikkaku first and foremost because the
the act of reading, iIdon't really love
the act of reading, I haven't been a reader
all my life. I've only been reading for
the past three years, but reading Heroine
Shikkaku made me love the act of reading.
i just had the best, most enjoyable time
with this book. I read the first three
volumes and I love it because this is
kind of like a reverse-shipping kind of
a story because we as the reader are
rooting for the girl to NOT get the guy
and that is awesome and I love every
second of it.
I loved Chi's Sweet Home. This, like,
completely slice-of-life contemporary
about a little kitten, and it breaks my
heart. It breaks my heart,
this manga series. I also really
love My Little Monster, which I've talked
about a lot over these last few months. I
think it is one of the best written
contemporary works ever, so if you're a
fan of contemporary, you need to read it.
It is about learning how to grow up,
learning how to socialize, what even is
falling in love? But I feel like I say it
all the time so I'm, like, tired of
hearing myself talk about this manga. But
it's very, very good. And I loved Jem and
the Holograms vol.1. I loved it for the
characters. They are diverse and quirky.
Well-written. And i just adore them and I
adore their interactions and this has a
lot of different body types depicted,
which I need and we all need. You need! So
i love it for that. I also loved Giant
Days, which is about three protagonists
who were in college, one of which is gay,
and it's delightful. Just a great,
slice-of-life, contemporary work. And
lastly, the last category,
because I feel like nobody likes this
genre: romance! My favorite romance read
was my re-read of Dengeki Daisy which is
one of my favorite manga. The romance
gives me life. I love it.
This is my book boyfriend, really. I
don't think i have to say anything else.
So, those were the standout books of 2016
for me, most of which are favourites, some
of which i don't consider to be
favourites. Make sure that i have watched
your video on this topic. I love
favorites of 2016 videos and I have, like,
a project i'm working on. The same thing
I did last year, for those of you who
were here last year. So, I need to see
everybody's favorite of 2016 videos. Come
to me in the comments! <3

Favorite 2016 Debuts & New To Me Authors - Duration: 9:31.
Hey guys! It's Trina and this is my
December Monthly Recommendations video.
Our topic for this month was new to us
authors. We thought it would be a great
way to end the year by reflecting on the
authors that we discovered for the first
time this year. In 2016 I read a total of
twenty authors that I had never read
anything by before. Some of these I read
more than one book by them this year.
There were 12 authors who had backlist
titles, so some of these authors have had
dozens of books published in the past
or they have multiple series and I just had
never read anything by them before. Those
12 authors were Jojo Moyes, Michael Punke,
April Genevieve Tucholke, Adam Silvera,
Shannon Hale, Robin Talley, Melissa Grey,
Marisha Pessl, Becky Albertalli, Jessica Love,
Alexandra Bracken, and Ann Brashares.
The other eight authors who were new to
me this year were actually debut authors
so the first book that they've ever
published came out in 2016 and those
eight authors were Emily Henry, Emily France,
Roshani Chokshi, Jeff Zentner,
Shannon Parker, Sara Ella, Meredith Russo,
and Julie Eshbaugh. So out of these 20
authors there are ten books that were my
favorites of this list that I want to
recommend to you guys today. The one I'm going to
start with is the Sisterhood series by
Ann Brashares. She has many books out and I
read her entire Sisterhood series this
year. It's about a group of four girls
that have been friends all of their
lives and in the first book they are
facing their first ever summer apart and
they vowed to keep in touch by sending
each other letters and mailing this
pair of jeans that somehow fits all of
them back and forth hopefully to have
like these grand adventures and great
experiences while wearing these jeans
because they feel like the jeans are
kind of a symbol of their bond and their
friendship. There are five books in this
series and one of the things that I really
love about it is that it grows with the
characters from high school, to college,
and then the last book does have a big
time jump and follow them as adults.
I love many aspects to the characters and
their lives and I really loved the
friendships and how that was really the
forefront of the message in these books.
Next, I finally read Alexandra Bracken.
I ended up reading two books by her this
year and she's probably the most known
for her The Darkest Minds trilogy but I
actually started by reading Passenger
which came out in January and I really
had trouble getting into this book
but then by the end I had totally turned
around and was really really enjoying it.
Having read passenger first even
though it's her most recent book, that
really made me want to get into her
writing more so then I went back and
read The Darkest Minds. If you aren't
familiar with either of these, Passenger is
a time travel story. You travel to so
many different times and locations
around the world. I really enjoyed the
travel aspect, I thought she really
nailed the atmosphere of each location. I
really felt like I was traveling the
world in that book. The Darkest Minds is
a dystopian trilogy where in the future
teenagers have developed these psychic
mind powers. I really enjoyed both of
these and would recommend them both. The
next author who was new to me this
year that I would recommend is Jessica
Love. I read In Real Life by her and I
really really enjoyed this one. It is
about two people who have an online
friendship and one of them develops
feelings for the other one and she
decides to actually go and meet him in
real life and see if they have more than
a friendly connection. When she does
meet him she finds out that he may not
have been totally honest about some of
the things that she thought she knew
about him. I found the premise of this
book like totally interesting - this whole
thing with online friendships, online
dating, people portraying themselves in a
certain way online. It is a pretty fluffy
kind of contemporary novel but I blew
through it in like just a couple of
sittings and I really appreciated that about it.
Becky Albertalli was also a new-to-me
author this year. I read Simon vs. the
Homo Sapiens Agenda. This book was my
favorite book of the year. It was
number one in my best books of the year
list. If you missed that video, by the way,
I'm gonna put a link to it down below
where I do talk about my six favorite
books of the year.
Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda
was number one. If you aren't familiar with
this one, it is about a boy named Simon
who is not out to school or to his
family but he is gay.
He has a crush on a boy that he knows
online and all he knows about this boy
is his nickname and that he goes to his
same high school but he's not out either.
So Simon is having these feelings and
maybe wanting to come out and also
figuring out who his online crush is. It's
so adorable and it really really
captured the feelings of high school
crushes and online relationships and
like friendships to romance and stuff like
that. I really enjoyed this book so much
and just... I loved it. I loved it. I loved it! It's my
book of the year, of course I loved it.
This year I also read Melissa Grey for
the first time. I read The Girl at
Midnight and its sequel, The Shadow Hour.
This is an urban fantasy series that has
a lot of elements to it that I think
fans of the Daughter of Smoke and Bone
series would love. Like, there's just a lot
of good things about it that are common
in very popular YA series. It is also
own voices in terms of the Latina main
character and there are some male/male
relationships and I just thought it was
a very exciting thing so I enjoyed it and I
would definitely recommend it.
Next, I really enjoyed Night Film by
Marisha Pessl. This is an adult mystery
novel and I just enjoyed this book and
like how it made you wonder which thing
was true because it kind of set up the
story to go a couple different ways. It's
about a director who's very famous and
very reclusive. His daughter ends up dead
one day. It was declared a suicide by
police but there's a little bit of like
evidence that says maybe she was
actually murdered. And the main character
we follow is a journalist who decides
he wants to start investigating this
case because something just has never
felt right about this girl and her
father and maybe like their whole family
and the relationship they have with each
other and he thinks she was being
haunted by some kind of demons from her
past and he's trying to figure out what
that was. The next four books on this
list are all of my debut authors who I read
this year, so first of all I have to
mention Sara Ella. She wrote
Unblemished. She is one of my good
friends and she is a fellow booktuber so
I'm gonna have a link to her channel down below.
Unblemished is an urban fantasy series
about a girl who discovers that there
are parallel worlds and there's another
parallel world where she finds herself
wrapped up in this ongoing eternal
battle between light and darkness. There
are so many fairytale-esque themes in
this book and I just really think if you
like fairy tales you would enjoy this one too.
This is the start of a trilogy so I did
feel like it was kind of complicated for
me to keep up with all the characters
and all of the world building that was
going on but this is a story that was very
unique and it did stand out to me and I
can't wait to see where this series goes.
I also really loved The Girl Who Fell by
S. M. Parker. This is another book that made
it into my top six list of the year. It
just was such an impactful story to me.
This one is about an abusive
relationship. You know that from the book
jacket, from the summary, and you're
watching these two characters meet and
how they get involved with each other
and then how the main female character
figures out that this is not a healthy relationship.
The writing was really easy to read, it
kept me engaged. I like that in some
parts this book took stereotypes about
abusive relationships and ran with it
because those things are stereotypes for
a reason, and then in other ways the book
kind of broke out of different
stereotypes. I do feel like it's such an
important thing to talk about in YA
fiction. This is definitely not like the
only book out there that handles abusive
relationships for young adults but we
need more like this and I really
appreciated that this book was giving us
a story like that.
Next is Meredith Russo who wrote If I
Was Your Girl. This is a book about a
trans girl and the author is also a
trans woman so it is own voices.
Primarily, this is a contemporary romance.
This is about Amanda after she has
transitioned, having her first relationship
with a boy and she's moved to a new
school where people don't know that she
is trans. We also have flashbacks that
show what it was like being bullied as a
young child. There were a couple of
things about the writing and like the
progression of the story that weren't my
favorite but this is still a book that I
really loved. I would consider it one of
my favorites of the year even though it
didn't quite make the top six but I
highly highly recommend this one.
And finally I would recommend Ivory and
Bone by Julie Eshbaugh. This is the first
book in - I think it's going to be a
trilogy. This one is set in a prehistoric
time period which I've never really read
about. It is kind of a romance but it's a
very slow burn romance. like hate to love
type of situation. It is very reminiscent
of Pride and Prejudice and that is because
it is a kind of inspired by, very loose
retelling and I knew that going into
this book and it made it so fun for me
to read it and kind of figure out which
character was representing which
original character from Pride and
Prejudice. Another thing that was
really interesting to me about this book
was the way that it was told. I know that
this did not work for everyone but it
really worked for me - it is told in kind
of a second person narrative. The book
starts with our character Kol telling
Mya the story of how he met her. That,
plus the prehistoric time period which I
have never really read anything set at
that time just made this story really
refreshing and unique to me and I really
really enjoyed it.
So those are my 10 favorite books that
were by new to me authors that I
first read this year. I definitely am
looking forward to reading more by
all of these authors. I do also want to
quickly say that although they did not
make it into my top 10 favorite books
Robin Talley, Adam Silveira, and Roshani
Chokshi are also new to me authors this
year that I want to read more by. Let me
