I am looking for an on-line electrical supplies retailer. I need a relay (120VAC, 20A contacts, 120VAC coil, SPST, continuous duty) and live in rural area where the nearest supply store is 100 miles away! Can someone give me a hint?

Tried Grainger.com...they are wholesalers and I did not get anywhere with them. I need a retailer!
Thanks for your reply texsparky.

I've never had a problem ordering retail from grainger.com. If they give you a hard time, just make up a company name with your home as the address.

Consider the E-Bay auction----www.ebay.com------if you want to "register" as an E-Bay "buyer" you'll need either a Credit/Debit card or a non-anonymous E-Mail adress."Searching" is very simple; just inset "relays" in the "search" slot and hundreds of relays will appear. I recently "won" 100 6-amp cartridge fuses for $4. I told the "seller" to send me 30 and he could keep the rest. I needed fuses of this rating for a specific purpose. The point is that E-Bay is very useful for locating hard-to-find items.---Good Luck!!!!
