⚖️ Seller Warranty & Marketplace Dispute Conciliation
Activate the warranty if the relay exhibits a manufacturing defect, such as failure to trip despite correct settings and no overload, or if internal components fail prematurely without signs of misuse or improper installation. Fitment issues preventing correct mounting on the specified contactor also indicate a potential manufacturing defect.
