For these relays electrical life tests are conducted under the DC voltage used in the on-board circuitry. Since no standardized tests have been established for automotive relays, the electrical loads are agreed upon between the supplier and the end user. The multitude of load conditions, i.e. resistive, inductive motor, and lamp loads require a flexible set-up of suitable test equipment ''(see <xr id="fig:Principle and sequence of testing with electronic load simulation"/> (Fig. 13.8)''.
