Right heres the problem. I want to install a 24 v Klaxon Sounder controlled by a "push to make" switch. I went to the electrical wholesalers and was given a Relay. It is a 10amp 250vac Base.With an 8 pin 24vdc relay. Is this what i need? I jus cant get my head round the connections, surely i need a 24v dc transformer not a relay to convert 240v AC to 24v DC? Just to clarify i want to push a switch and a 24v DC sounder to sound. Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi
Yes you just need a 240v to 24v transformer first, and of course your door bell switch.
Can not explain why you were given a relay, unless the power consumption (amps) of your Klaxon is to high for your door bell switch.
