Aurore Relay Socket Base MK-2P MK-3P MY-2 MY-4 LY-2 LY-4 DIN Rail Panel Mount Superior
Streamline electrical panel assembly and simplify relay replacements with the Aurore Relay Socket Base Series.
Specifically engineered to pair seamlessly with standard electromagnetic general-purpose power relays including the MK, MY, and LY relay families these socket bases provide a secure, flame-retardant foundation for industrial automation panels, machinery control systems, and electrical distribution boards.
Built with robust screw-clamp terminals, each socket unit ensures tight, reliable wiring connections for solid and stranded copper conductors.
The integrated mounting slot system supports standard 35mm DIN rail mounting as well as direct screw-panel mounting, allowing panel builders and maintenance technicians to organize relay banks neatly while saving installation time.
This versatile socket collection includes six specific models tailored to match corresponding relay pin configurations:
-
MK-2P Socket Base: Designed with an 8-pin circular socket layout for 8-pin round power relays.
-
MK-3P Socket Base: Designed with an 11-pin circular socket layout for 11-pin round power relays.
-
MY-2 Socket Base: Features an 8-pin blade socket layout for 2-pole miniature general-purpose relays.
-
MY-4 Socket Base: Features a 14-pin blade socket layout for 4-pole miniature general-purpose relays.
-
LY-2 Socket Base: Features an 8-pin blade socket layout for 2-pole heavy-duty power relays.
-
LY-4 Socket Base: Features a 14-pin blade socket layout for 4-pole heavy-duty power relays.
Using plug-in relay sockets eliminates the need to desolder or disconnect individual wires during maintenance. Technicians can simply pull out a worn relay unit and plug in a fresh replacement within seconds, minimizing downtime in industrial production environments.

Common Product FAQs
Q: Which Aurore relay socket base do I need for my relay?
A: Match the socket model directly to your relay model family and pin count:
-
MK-2P: Fits 8-pin round relays.
-
MK-3P: Fits 11-pin round relays.
-
MY-2: Fits 8-pin 2-pole miniature blade relays (MY-2N).
-
MY-4: Fits 14-pin 4-pole miniature blade relays (MY-4N).
-
LY-2: Fits 8-pin 2-pole heavy-duty blade relays (LY-2N).
-
LY-4: Fits 14-pin 4-pole heavy-duty blade relays (LY-4N).
Q: How are these relay socket bases mounted inside an electrical panel?
A: Every socket base features a universal rear snap-on mechanism compatible with standard 35mm DIN rails, as well as pre-drilled screw holes for direct surface mounting onto panel backplates.
Q: What type of wire connection terminals are used on these sockets?
A: The bases are equipped with durable screw-clamp terminals, allowing secure, vibration-resistant connections for control wiring.
Q: What is the primary benefit of using a relay socket base instead of direct wiring?
A: Using a socket base allows for quick “plug-and-play” replacement of relays during maintenance without disturbing or disconnecting the hardwired terminal leads.
