There is no such model. You may be looking for MKS2XTN-11 instead, the socket will be P7MF-06.

Looking for equivalent model for PANASONIC LQ RELAY ALQ324 24V 10A.

Answer :

You may select these relays G2R-1A or G2R-1A4. For G2R-1A, the contact rating is 10A at 250VAC/30VDC. For G2R-1A4, the contact rating is 8A at 250VAC/30VDC. The difference is the appearance, dimension, and contact rating. Kindly contact us directly at  for a quotation.

What is the difference between relay and contactor? 

Answer: 

There is a lot of confusion around the industry about the difference between Relays and Contactors.

Relays are used to control contacts of an electrical circuit due to a change of parameters or conditions in the same circuit or any other associated circuit.

Contactors, on the other hand, are used to interrupt or establish connections in an electrical circuit repeatedly under different conditions.
