Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable the formation of a back-up system including off-disable failure of relays to be conducted without needing additional relays by using surplus contacts of relays each containing at least two contacts so as to provide the connection between contacts. CONSTITUTION:Relays Re-1, 2 are turned on so as to keep warm by a heater H-1 when normal, and relays Re-1, 2 are turned off so as to keep warm by a heater H-2 when the heater H1 is in failure. When the relay Re-1 or the relay Re-2 is in on-disable-failure, both the relays Re-1, 2 are turned off so that the heater H-2 is turned on. On the contrary, when the relay Re-1 is in on-disable-failure the relay Re-2 is turned off so that both heater H-1, 2 are turned off. When the relay Re-2 is in off-disable-failure, the relay Re-1 is turned off so that both heaters H-1, 2 are turned off. Accordingly, back-up can be provided to on-disable failure or off-disable failure on the relay without needing additional relays.
