Electromechanical relays are switches that control high-power electrical devices by using a small amount of power. It can be operated by both AC and DC; a magnetic force is generated when the power is supplied controlling the mechanism in the switch. Electromechanical relays provide good performance. It has a long operational life and consumes less power. On and off control, limit control, and logic operations are functions of the electrical relays. These electromechanical relays have several applications such as power supply switching in TVs, DTH boxes, and factory automation, temperature controller in HVAC devices, motor controllers, and others

Globally rising energy prices are driving the demand for advanced electromechanical relays to reduce power consumption. The rising number of renewable energy projects is also fuelling the demand for high-capacity electromechanical relays, thus positively impacting the growth of the global EMR market. Increasing demand for electromechanical relays due to their low cost, long operation life, less power consumption, and easy maintenance is augmenting the market growth. Wide usage of electromechanical relays in electronic appliances and increasing use in the automobile sector in the fuse box to prevent the circuits from overload and faults are also fueling the growth of the market. However, the availability of solid-state relays (SSRs) as a substitute due to advancements in semiconductor fabrication and manufacturing technology may hamper the growth of the market.

The advent of COVID-19 hurt the global Electromechanical relay market. The immense downturn in the industries which has been significant end-users of the technology impacted the decline in the market for electromechanical relays at a global level. The pandemic brought major projects in the renewable resources industry to a standstill owing to the lockdowns that were imposed in several countries to curb the spread of the disease. After the initial lockdown period, some of the activities were allowed but with restrictions and certain protocols that were required to be followed like the projects will be operated with a lesser capacity which will require less labour to come in contact, and social distancing was required to be maintained in the premises as well. A significant shift was noticed in several industries using electromechanical relays for various applications. The manufacturing of the relays came to a halt as it became difficult to obtain the components owing to the disrupted supply chain during the period. With the industries recovering after the pandemic gradually, the businesses are expected to operate at full capacity starting from the third and fourth quarters of 2021. This will further help in the recovery of the electromechanical relays market.
