7. Contact protection measures
7.1. Inductive load with DC voltage
With DC voltage the contact protection can be achieved via a free-
wheeling diode, connected in parallel to the load. The polarity of the
diode must be arranged so that it closes when the operating voltage is on.
Example:

wheeling diode
7.2. Inductive load with AC voltage
With AC voltage two protection measures are possible:
Example:
