    This document describes an experiment to control the direction of a DC motor using relays. The objectives are to control the motor in the forward and reverse directions using relays. The materials used include relays, push buttons, LEDs, wires, and a motor. The procedure connects the components according to a circuit diagram. Pushing the forward button energizes one relay to allow current to flow in one direction, turning the motor in that direction. Pushing the reverse button energizes the other relay to allow current to flow the other way. A normally closed stop button interrupts the power when pressed. Analysis explains how the relays work to latch the circuit into forward or reverse configurations when their corresponding buttons are pressed.

    The circuit uses relays to control a DC motor in forward and reverse directions.

    Normally open push buttons are used to energize coils in the relays, which then allow current to flow in one direction or the other to make the motor spin forward or backward.

    Relays use an electromagnet and a spring-loaded switch. When a small current passes through the coil, it generates a magnetic field that moves the switch against the force of the spring, allowing a circuit to be completed.

    OBJECTIVES:
    To control the DC Motor using relays
    To control the motor in forward and reversed direction.

    MATERIALS
    2 pieces of Relay with base
    2 Normally Open Push Button
    1 Normally Closed Push Button
    1 Bread board
    2m connecting wires (red)
    2m connecting wires (black)
    3 pieces LED light
    Previous Experiments (VDCC, Potentiometer, Motor,
    Resistors)

    PROCEDURE

    1. Hook connecting wires in the base of the relay similar to the
    specified design.
    2. Put the push button precise to the design.
    3. Connect the LED in place with a resistor to maintain the
    required voltage of the LED.
    4. Use the Breadboard to join wires and other components in
    their appropriate places.
    5. Check all the connections before connecting the 24V source.

    ANALYSIS
    First in the push buttons, a Normally Open push button is
    used to be the switches of Forward and Reverse. When the N.O.
    push button is pushed the coil will be energized and the paralleled
    relay will make a path for the current to flow. (See in the design
    below). This method is called latching. The relays are the one
    making the latching possible. The latching relay works with the use
    of coils. These coils control the relay. It generates a magnetic field.
    As the circuit generates electricity, the switch pushes from one side
    to the other.
    To Forward and Reverse the DC Motor we used relays in
    combination (See in the design) When the forward button is
    actuated the relay will be energized and then the switches of relay
    will be closed for the current to flow, the reverse use the similar
    principle.
    For stopping the device. Normally Closed push button is
    used to be the STOP button, when pushed the power will be
    interrupted and all the energized coils will be de-energized.

    CONCLUSION
    A relay is an electrical switch that is operated by an
    electromagnet, such as a solenoid. When a small current passes
    through the electromagnet's coiled wire, it produces a magnetic
    field that attracts a movable iron bar, causing it to pivot and open or
    close the switch.
    A relay, quite simply, is a small machine consisting of an
    electromagnet (coil), a switch, and a spring. The spring holds the
    switch in one position, until a current is passed through the coil.
    The coil generates a magnetic field which moves the switch. It's
    that simple. You can use a very small amount of current to activate
    a relay, and the switch can often handle a lot of current.

    RECOMMENDATION
    Check if the relay can handle the voltage of the source.
    Use resistor for the LED to maintain the required voltage of the LED.
