Tonight I have been hooking up all the 240 power to the power supply and 25A SSR and noticed a strange thing with the SSR. In place of connecting my heating element I hooked up a small wattage light bulb to check all is ok in manual and auto mode and I noticed when the ssr is off the light bulb would still blink for a fraction of a second every second or two. Then when I would switch the heat circuit on the bulb would light up as normal. With the heat circuit off and the bulb continues with the blinking.


Is this how a SSR works by sensing a load etc. I tried 2 different SSR's and they both do the same.


Is this normal for a SSR?
