NOTE: As noted above, the 4th digit in the code
number of G.E. relays and the 7th digit for White
Rodgers relays indicates the position in which the
relay is to be mounted. It is of utmost importance
that the relay be mounted in the required posi-
tion.Mounting in any other position can change the
relay’s operating characteristics enough so that the
compressor will not start properly. This can result in
compressor motor failure.
