Abstract: A power relay having terminal tabs includes an on-off contact element having at least one movable contact and at least one stationary contact, an on-off drive element, at least two pairs of input/output terminal tabs, and at least one pair of control terminal tabs. The on-off drive element makes the movable contact come into contact with or separated from the stationary contact. The two pairs of input/output terminal tabs are electrically connected to at least one pair of input/output portions of the on-off contact element. The one pair of control terminal tabs is electrically connected to control terminal portions of the on/off drive element. Each of the input/output portions is electrically connected to two of the input/output terminal tabs, which are arranged side-by-side in their thickness direction and in vicinity with each other. The input/output terminal tabs and the control terminal tabs have a same thickness and width.

Abstract: A pair of fixed terminals each include an internal terminal, an external terminal, and fixed contact. The internal terminal is located inside the housing. The external terminal includes an external connection portion and protrudes outward from a housing. The housing includes a side portion extending in a moving direction of a movable contact piece. The external terminal is arranged without protruding outwardly in a width direction of the pair of fixed terminals beyond both ends of the side portion in the width direction of the pair of fixed terminals at a height position of the external terminal in the moving direction. The external connection portion is formed to be larger than the internal terminal in at least one of the width direction or a thickness direction of the pair of fixed terminals.

Abstract: A relay includes a fixed terminal, a movable contact piece, a holder, a drive shaft, a contact case, a magnetic field generation member, and an inner member. The drive shaft is connected to the holder on a side close to the first end of the drive shaft. The magnetic field generation member is arranged around the contact case and is configured to generate a magnetic field in which an arc generated between the fixed contact and the movable contact extends in a lateral direction of the movable contact piece. The inner member includes a rotation preventing portion for restricting rotation of the holder around the drive shaft. The rotation preventing portion is arranged so as to contact the holder at a position closer to a second end of the drive shaft than the movable contact piece and closer to the drive shaft than the movable contact.
