A relay with a capacitor suppression element includes a documented capacitive network associated with the coil.

## What it represents

A relay with a capacitor suppression element includes a documented capacitive network associated with the coil. Its connection and effect on switching are product-dependent.

## How to read it

- Check the coil voltage type and suppression configuration before substituting a relay assembly.
- The preview is an original explanation of this function. Match the actual drawing convention to its legend and the selected equipment documentation.

## Information to show or reference

- Identify capacitor network
- State coil rating
- Reference approved suppression module

## Important distinction

Capacitor suppression is different from the coil's operating function and from a motor run capacitor.

## Facts

- Drawing role: Relay operation
- Representation scope: Functional concept; not an official standard graphic or a product footprint
- Public vendor block reference: HCR1K37, VCR1K37 (Autodesk identifiers; not IEC symbol numbers)
- Identifier status: The short label is a functional lookup label, not an assigned IEC or IEEE symbol number. Any separately listed Autodesk code is a verified vendor block name.
