Hi, I 've been trying to wire a Dold LG5925 for a while now unsuccessfully. The actual number at the back is LG5925.48/61, and it says A1(+)/A2 AC/DC 24V I'm assuming this safety relay powers up using 24VDC between A1 and A2, but I 've so far been unsuccessful to turn even that light on. I have nothing else connected on it, the switches S1 and S2 are set to Manual and No cross fault; although I 've tested all 4 possible combinations (auto start with and without cross fault, manual start with and without cross fault), and it just won't show power. The manual does mention that if there's a cross fault between S11 and S21 the light will be off, but they are not even connected to anything so I have no idea what may be wrong.

I have used many of this relay, and have not experienced what you write. Are you sure you have +24 connected to A1 and 0 to A2?

Have experienced the same. Sometimes it takes another set of eyes to solve a problem.

...clearly marked A2.
I would beg to differ. I struggle even with a magnifier to see those pathetic (cheap) markings.

Speaking of pathetic markings, you ever try to read the markings on a 750-2C-SKT socket? I usually take a black marker and try to highlight them or make a drawing and include it into the schematic. 750-2C-SKT750-2C- 750-2C-SKT 750-2C-SKT
A lot of times I'll put a diagram of the socket in my drawings as well because they are so hard to read. My bad yes certainly don't help much either ;)

I always do this as well. I show a line going to each terminal used with what wire # it is.
They really need to make an easy-to-read line :-P

I always do this as well. I show a line going to each terminal used with what wire # it is to match the wiring diagram.

Thank you, I don't know how or why I wired "A2 " in another place other than the one clearly marked A2.
I think I need a vacation, Christmas can't come soon enough!
