Schneider Electric 8501RS14V36 General Purpose Relay

Schneider Electric's Square D 8501RS14V36 is a miniature, socket‑mount general‑purpose relay (Type R) designed for compact control panels. It uses a 12 VAC coil to energize four Form C contacts (4PDT) within a 14‑pin package, allowing four independent circuits to be switched from a single coil. The relay is rated for 5 A of switching current, making it suitable for general automation tasks that require multiple isolated outputs in a small form factor. This 8501RS14V36 variant is part of the 8501 family, a trusted line for plug‑in relays used in automation, signaling, and control circuits where multiple switching paths are needed in a compact device. Its plug‑in design and socket compatibility simplify installation and replacement in panels, while the four‑pole, double‑throw configuration provides flexible routing for multiple signals with a single device.
