Abstract:
An electromagnetic relay diagnostic device includes: an operation detection unit including a first light-emitting unit emitting light when a current flows through a wiring line connected to a coil of an electromagnetic relay; an operation detection unit including a second light-emitting unit emitting light when a current stops flowing through the wiring line; an operation detection unit including a third light-emitting unit emitting light when detecting a change in conductive state of a wiring line connected to a contact of the electromagnetic relay; an operation detection unit including a fourth light-emitting unit emitting light when detecting that the change in conductive state of the wiring line has disappeared; an imaging unit capturing a moving image of the operation detection units; and a diagnostic unit calculating a contact-on operation time and a contact-off operation time using the moving image, and diagnosing whether an abnormality has occurred in the electromagnetic relay.
