ABSTRACT:
In a relay device, a first PTC thermistor has one end connected to a first external connecting terminal, and the other end connected to one end of a second PTC thermistor, the other end of which is connected to a second external connecting terminal, and the thermo-switch is thermally coupled to the first and second PTC thermistors, and connected in parallel with the second PTC thermistor. The thermo-switch is held closed when not heated, and is opened by heat generated by the first or second PTC thermistor. Therefore, the relay device is low in initial resistance, and small in power consumption during heat balance.
