D.C. shunt relays are made of_____________?
Correct answer: C. many turns of thin wire
- A. few turns of thin wire
- B. few turns of thick wire
- C. many turns of thin wire
- D. many turns of thick wire
Explanation
A DC shunt relay is connected across the supply and must draw relatively small current, so its coil uses many turns of thin wire. A few turns of thick wire are characteristic of a series coil.
