Abstract :
The influence of contact surface conditions on reed bouncing is discussed. The behavior of dry reeds under "dry" circuit as well as heavy load has been investigated. The investigations were carried out for reeds of different types with normally open contacts. Conclusions about reed bounce variations during reed life have been formulated.
