ABSTRACT:
A method of operating a relay includes shifting, by a predetermined time increment each time the relay coil is energized, the time in the sine wave of the applied AC power source at which the relay coil is energized. The method further provides for similarly shifting the time in the sine wave at which the relay coil is de-energized. When applied to a system having two relays, the method includes providing such shifting to both relays and further includes providing a predetermined time delay between the time one relay is de-energized and the other relay is energized.
