15 A SPDT Plug-In Relay
The Dayton 1EHD6 is a general-purpose plug-in relay with a square base and five pins. It operates on a 240V AC coil voltage and provides a single-pole double-throw contact form. The unit is rated for 15 A at 277V AC and 15 A at 28V DC. It includes an LED status indicator and a mechanical flag for visual confirmation of operation.
Sustained 15 A Switching
The relay maintains its 15 A contact rating continuously at the stated AC and DC voltages. The silver alloy contacts are designed to handle the rated current without the degradation seen in short-burst testing. The transparent housing allows inspection of the contact condition during extended duty cycles. No push-to-test button is fitted, so verification relies on the LED indicator and mechanical flag.
277V AC / 28V DC Contact Limits
The contact ratings define the practical electrical limits: 15 A at 277V AC and 15 A at 28V DC. Horsepower ratings are 1/2 hp at 120V AC and 1 hp at 240V AC. Loads exceeding these voltage or current values fall outside the specified operating envelope. The plug-in mounting style requires a compatible socket for installation.

Questions about this item
How much heat does the 15 A relay generate when it runs continuously?
The relay carries up to 15 A at 277 V AC or 28 V DC; continuous operation at rated load will warm the silver-alloy contacts and coil, so allow airflow around the 1.1 in deep body.
What socket or base do I need to plug this 5-pin square relay into?
It uses a standard 5-pin square plug-in footprint; a matching DIN-rail or panel-mount socket with the same pin spacing is required.
Will the 240 V AC coil work with the 120 V control circuit I already have?
No, the coil is rated for 240 V AC; a 120 V circuit will not reliably energise it — choose a relay with a 120 V AC coil instead.
