Next-Gen Magnetic Latching Relays Revolutionize Power Grid Management
The SH1618-120-12DT2 and SH615-60-12DT2 magnetic latching relays are setting new benchmarks in energy infrastructure. These bistable relays require zero holding power - a critical feature enabling 15% energy savings in smart grid applications compared to traditional relays. Their 120A/60A switching capacities make them ideal for smart meter installations and renewable energy systems where low standby consumption is mandated by IEC 62053-21 standards.
Recent field tests in European smart grid projects demonstrate 500,000+ mechanical operations with <2mΩ contact resistance stability. The patented magnetic circuit design allows 3ms faster response than conventional models while withstanding 6kV impulse voltages - crucial for lightning-prone areas. Major utilities are adopting these relays to meet EU Ecodesign 2025 requirements for grid equipment efficiency.
