What is this relay used for?

It switches moderate DC loads on a circuit board, typically in automotive or embedded electronics. It is a component, not a plug-in module.

Does it plug into a standard automotive relay socket?

No. It has PCB terminals and is soldered directly to a board. It will not fit a blade-style relay socket.

Check the part's datasheet before buying. The coil voltage and contact ratings must match your circuit, and this listing does not state them.

TE builds the V23086 line as sealed micro relays for automotive use. Confirm the seal rating on the datasheet for your application.

It is sold as a single relay. Order the quantity your build needs.
