Friends I have made a IR controlled witch and now I want to couple it with the 2 way switch (as used in domestic electric boards) so that i can operate my device with IR remote as well as with the switch.Its just like using two 2 way switch just one of the 2 way switch is replaced by the relay.But here i am facing the problem
the traditional diode cannot be used because coil current needs to flow in both directions and whenever i switch the polarity through relay circuit breakdown occurs.sometimes it work fine but 1 out of 4 times breakdown occurs.I can see some electric arcs in relay
the relay i am using is 5V/220V.Please help me.
