I am thinking of using this relay breakout
http://www.ebay.com/itm/162247557098?_trksid=p2057872.m2748.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
to control a device that draws max current of 4 amps at 220V AC.
The relay module utilized in the aforementioned link is rated at 10amps so it appears that everything will be OK.
However, upon viewing the 4th (or 5th) picture at ebay -- which shows the breakout's behind, reading "Low level trigger" -- I am wondering if those PCB traces are really capable of 5 amps *mains* current (let alone 10 amps).
I am a beginner and apparently I wouldn't like to start a fire in my house, so any advice is appreciated.
