I have installed an Intellitic Big Boy Relay. I have noticed that it gets to hot to touch. Is this normal for these relays to do that or is this an indication that something could be wrong with the relay. It gets hot even when there is no load on it. Anyone else have this same relay or can shed some light on this issue, I would appreciate any input.
Thanks! Jim
Do you have one of these in your system ?

I have no clue about the system you are using, but it sounds interesting ???
good luck.
The 200 amp version is not a continuous duty unit and requires an Intellitec Isolator - diesel controller to prevent it from overheating when it is used for continuous duty. A momentary, dash-mounted switch can also be added to provide a "jump start" for the engine, from the auxiliary battery....
