I'll try to explain my problem clearly. I have a circuit with a bunch
of reed relays in it to switch on and off different parts of my
system. One particular relay in my system essentially electrifies a
coil to create an electro-magnet. When I switch this relay on and
off, the magnet works correctly. However, when the relay is switched
off, there is something happening that i don't quite understand yet.
When I switch off this particular relay, every other relay in my
circuit is momentarily activated (< 1 second). I'm thinking this is
because the load on my relay of interest is drawing a lot of current
and when the relay is switched off, there is some sort of shock
provided to some part of my circuit, causing all my relays to briefly
switch on.
Anyway, I hope this problem explanation makes sense and someone can
give me a solution I haven't tried yet. If I haven't provided enough
detail about my problem, let me know and I will fill in the gaps.
Usually, I'm pretty good at figuring out stuff like this, but I
honestly don't understand this one. Help would be very much
appreciated! Thanks.
