Abstract

See full text

An electromagnetic relay includes a fixed terminal, a movable contact piece, a first contact, a second contact, a movable mechanism, and a magnet unit. The first contact is disposed on one of the fixed terminal or the movable contact piece. The second contact is disposed on another of the fixed terminal or the movable contact piece. The magnet unit generates a magnetic field to apply a Lorentz force to an arc generated between the first contact and the second contact. The magnet unit applies the Lorentz force in a first direction to the arc when a current flowing through the arc is directed from the second contact toward the first contact. In a state in which the first contact is in contact with the second contact, a center position of the first contact and a center position of the second contact are shifted from each other in the first direction.
