  • FIG. 4 there is shown a diagram of a relayunit by means of which a disengaged relaygroup A, B or C is selected. There is a separate relay arrangement having relays I5 and I6 for each group A, B and C and each relay arrangement is provided with contacts I1 and I8 which are connected with corresponding contacts in the relay-groups. cv is connected to'the relay-unit.
  • the contacts co the relays I53 and IE3 will be operated in substantially the same way as the relays ISA and I6A, as is described above, and the contacts at will be connected with the operating winding I60 through the closed relay contacts 28 (of I53) and 29 (of I5A) and the relay contactof the relay I50.
  • the contact e When the start key I in Fig. 1 is operated the contact e will be connected with the negative terminal of the source of current through the contact lo and a cut-oil contact of a cut-ofi relay 2.
  • This relay is controlled by a control relay 3, the one terminal of the winding of said latter relay being permanently connected to the negative terminal of the source of current while the other terminal of said winding is connected with the plus terminal through the contacts Id and I b, when the start key is operated.
  • the relay 3 is operated and its contact 3a closes a circuit through the relay 2 which will cut-off the connection of the contact e with the negative terminal of the source of current. Therefore, the contact e will be negative only for a short period.
  • the contact 022 (that is all contacts co) will be positive for a short period through the contact I b and a cut-oil contact of the relay 2 which is energized and cutsofl. the connection between the contact 01) and the plus terminal of the source of current after a very short interval.
