themadhippy Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 There's no way a 0-10V control signal would drive a relay coil. please dont tell my little reed relays that,they are very happy being driven from a 0-10v output from a pulsar demuxAs for driving a relay of a dimmer output,depending on how the dimmer works theres a good chance youll end up with a nice buzzer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsabre Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Umm yes but he said "grab a mains relay which is triggered by 12V". Which is very much not a reed relay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac.calder Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Input current for a G3NE-220T-US-DC12 solid state mains relay (20A) is 10mA. My demux here has an output current rating of 40mA. Seems doable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems doable. Sorry, you're right if you are careful with relay selection. Most of the ones I normally use need a few hundred mA which would not work.
