Arduino 4-Channel Relay Shield Module – Product Overview
The Arduino 4-Channel Relay Shield Module gives your Arduino board reliable power switching for AC and DC devices. Designed to plug directly into standard Arduino headers, this shield provides four independent relays for controlling lights, fans, pumps, motors, and other appliances in automation and prototype systems.
Key Benefits
- Plug-and-play shield design for quick prototyping and project deployment
- Four separate channels to control multiple devices independently
- High quality relay contacts rated for common household and low voltage loads
- LED status indicators for immediate visual feedback
- Isolation protection to reduce the risk of damaging your Arduino during switching
Key Features
- 4 Independent Channels – Full control of four devices via digital pins
- Relay Trigger Voltage – 5V DC trigger for direct Arduino compatibility
- Load Capacity – Each relay handles 10A at 250V AC or 10A at 30V DC
- LED Indicators – Individual LEDs indicate relay activation
- Isolation Protection – Safe relay triggering to protect your microcontroller

Quick Start Guide
- Power off your Arduino board and place the relay shield onto the Arduino headers.
- Connect the devices you want to control to the relay common (COM) and normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC) terminals according to your wiring needs.
- Power the Arduino and upload a simple sketch that toggles the digital pins D4 to D7 to test each relay.
- Confirm correct operation using the built-in LED indicators before connecting mains-powered appliances.
Wiring and Safety Notes
- Always disconnect power before wiring or changing connections.
- When switching mains AC loads, ensure insulated wiring, proper fuses, and safe enclosures.
- Do not exceed the relay ratings: 10A at 250V AC or 10A at 30V DC.
- Use isolation techniques and follow local electrical regulations when working with high voltages.
