Bistable relay, latching relay
In a bistable or latching relay the contacts remain in the last switching position once the coil input voltage is disconnected.
Even though the bistable relays are leaving production preferably in reset contact position, the position of the contact (set position/reset position) is not defined at delivery. The user needs to check the contact position and to set/reset the relay to the required position.
Bistable relays only require a short set respectively reset pulse and do not need any energization once the switching position changed. Unless otherwise stated the bistable relays can endure a permanent energization.
Note: For some relay series a permanent coil power supply is not permitted; in this case the maximum energization duration or the required coil power reduction is indicated in the respective datasheet.

Bistable relay, switching characteristics
In a bistable relay, the contacts remain in the last switching position after the input voltage is disconnected.
Note: Unless otherwise stated the position of the contact (set position/reset position) is not defined at delivery, the customer needs to check the contact position and to set/reset the relay to the required position.
Note: Unlike monostable relays which return to their predefined contact rest state in case of power supply break down and thus might be showing a fail safe behavior, bistable relays do not automatically return to such predefined position. Therefore the application and relay control has to be designed to cover such situations and bistable relays should not be used in applications that are rated according to ISO/TS 16949 7.5.3 'Product Identification and Traceability'.

Bounce
An unintentional phenomenon that can occur during the making or breaking of a contact circuit when the contact elements touch successively and separate again before they have reached their final position.
![]()
Bounce time
The time from the first to the last closing or opening of a relay contact. Unless otherwise stated the indicated times are maximum values and are for energization with rated voltage, without any components in series or parallel to the coil, and at reference temperature. Also see > Relay cycles.

Breaking capacity max.
Product of the switching current and switching voltage (in W for direct current, in VA for alternating current). Also see > DC breaking capacity

Bridging contact
Double contact configuration, where two movable contacts are mechanically connected and operate simultaneously. In a bridge configuration, the load current flows from one stationary contact via the bridge to a second stationary contact. See also table Contact arrangement. See > Form X contact, Form Y contact, Form Z contact.
