inspection of contacts for damage, misalignment, corrosion or other contamination of
parts; loose parts inside of the cover; a broken seal; and a cracked or broken cover.
Relays not passing the above-stated tests and inspections must be replaced and not
returned to service until the operating characteristics and conditions are in accordance
with STS USA specifications.

It is recommended that track relays in service be removed from service for shop repairs
when the calibration values are out of specification.
