Hello:
Saw the following designation on a furnace blower replacement relay, preumably for the current capability of the contacts: "8 FLA"
Never ran into this before.
Assuming the A part means amps, which would be about right for the relay and the number 8 appearing, what could the FL part be ?
Thanks, B.
Full Load?
HR.
replacement relay,
FLA"
for the relay and
FLA = full load amps = max running amps. Less than that is fine.
LRA = locked rotor amps (seen on heavier motors and the amps you see for a second or two on startup with)
