Abstract (en)

[origin: DE4332995C1] A plurality of relays which are arranged in parallel are connected to a common voltage source (Ub) and can thus be switched on and off by relay switching means assigned to them. The object is to reduce the power loss during operation. To this end, the relay excitation coils (Rel1, Rel2) which are in each case to be switched on are driven by a common clock generator after reaching their response state. Can be used in motor vehicles. <IMAGE>
