Where and which relays to buy

[elsmandino]

Hi there.

I need to buy a couple of relays to update my heating system:

* A mechanical SPDT NO relay, 230v 10A
* A mechanical SPST relay, 230v 10A

If I type these into Google, I get a whole range of different makes from all sorts of sources.

What brands should I look for and are there any reputable sellers that I should use to guarantee a genuine product?

Prices seem to be about £10.00 each - more than I was expecting. Is that about right?

It's pretty much a case of a relay is a relay and if it's only for your heating controls then I doubt it will be carrying much load. So just take your pick.Get one to suit your existing base.

And note that functionally, DPTD relays will meet both your requirements. Just don't connect the contacts you dont need.
