Hi Guys
I got a solenoid that is getting the relay that is driving it going bad due to the contacts getting welded, so now its time to install a diode across the solenoid, only thing is that I am not a pro at sizing the correct diode, So i would be thank full if some of you guys could help
the Solenoid is a 900W DC solenoid running on 110VDC.
P.S
If I change the Electromechanically relay with a SSR that has a load voltage of 0-400VDC and load current of 40 amp, will I still need to install the diode ?
