Abstrakt: Material transfer may change the effective contact distance and/or jam the contacts delaying or even preventing contact opening. These effects can be recorded in an actual relay by measuring the contact force and/or the contact voltage during each operation. Proper recording and evaluation during life tests of relays may indicate the reasons and eves the mechanisms of contact failures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
