Abstract

See full text

A system includes a relay system and a controller. The relay system includes a relay having a first contact on an input side of the relay, the input side coupled to a power source, and a second contact on a load side of the relay coupled to a load. The controller is configured to monitor a current flow from the power source through the relay, transmit a close signal to the relay, and to transmit an open signal to the relay. Based on the current flow through the relay following the open signal, determine whether an electrical weld of one of the first contact and the second contact of the relay exists.
