I have a very little knowledge in the relays and other electrecal parts, but I need to ask about if the soild state relay and the electronic relay are the same? and if not, how can I obtain informations about the electronic relay. thanks alot.

Suggestions for this article:
It means when electro-mechanical relays fail, they usually fail in the "off" state. SCR's are more likely to fail stuck in the ON state, which could be dangerous depending on the type of circuit.

Note the "Am I using the right heatsink?" link is dead.
Page should be connected to German article /de:Relais#Halbleiterrelais/. Unfortunately Wikidata refuses entry. /de:Relais/ is already linked to /en:Relais/... Good luck! Abrev ( talk) —Preceding undated comment added 10:09, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
I would have said they are just as likey to fail closed due to contact welding. -- 86.173.134.241 ( talk) 14:16, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
Schematics showing internal structure would be really nice. -- Hooperbloob ( talk) 14:58, 22 October 2013 (UTC)
I read the following advantage wrong:
Lower (if any) minimum output current (latching current) required
Because it says output current, I was thinking about the load, not the control signal. Obviously no current needs to flow through the contacts of a relay, so I assume it's about the LED in the optocoupler or similar. In my opinion, it should say something more like "control current", but I'm not knowledgeable enough about the topic to be sure about this, so hopefully someone else can assess this properly.

The name "Roger Parr" after the last link doesn't make any sense, so I remove it. Sofia Koutsouveli ( talk) 01:09, 22 March 2014 (UTC)
There's a huge problem in the industry with fake solid state relays. UL (safety organization) has issued a warning notice. [1]. Most of the solid-state relays sold on Amazon and eBay are fakes. Should this go in the article? John Nagle ( talk) 07:19, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
"No sparking, allows it to be used in explosive environments, where it is critical that no spark is generated during switching."
This text, under 'advantages', could be interpreted as 'it is safe to use any solid state relay in explosive environments', which is not true.
I would suggest changing this to something like 'This technology can be used to manufacture relays that are safe to use in explosive environments.'
