H-contact of the relay of unloading

The unloading relay (the ordinary switching relay) plays a significant role in the onboard electrician. Therefore here its function is described:
On the ignition lock plug 75 current arrives only if the ignition key is in situation "Is included". Powerful consumers of current, for example, screen wipers, the warmed back glass or the supercharger of air, are connected to this plug in order that at start of the engine on a starter there was all power of the accumulator. Certainly, not all these consumers can receive power supply through contact with the ignition lock; for this purpose it is too weak. Therefore between them the relay through which working contact giving of current is carried out has to be connected. The contact of the lock of ignition (along with giving of current on headlights and the coil of the relay of a sound signal) provides only giving of switching current to the relay.
