The invention discloses a circuit principle of an intermediate relay with extremely high reliability. The intermediate relay comprises a wide-voltage low-power-consumption power supply circuit, an anti-alternating-current detection circuit, a signal sampling, shaping, filtering and starting circuit, a relay constant-current acting control circuit and a dummy load current-limiting switching circuit with the starting power not smaller than 5W. The circuit adopts a low-power-consumption CMOS logic device and a high-power NMOS power device, and has the advantages of active interference absorption, no maloperation and no refusal operation, external interference resistance, high reliability, guarantee of reliable operation when the input voltage of the power supply is low, and guarantee of no burnout and excessive heating when the input voltage is extremely high. According to the invention, the defect that the performance of the conventional intermediate relay is reduced or the operation of the conventional intermediate relay is rejected and mistakenly operated under certain specific occasions is overcome, the correct operation performance of the intermediate relay under conventional and unconventional conditions is ensured to the greatest extent, and the reliability of the intermediate relay is greatly improved. The relay is especially suitable for matching of key high-value electrical equipment in the fields of electric power, chemical engineering, rail transit vehicles, ships, military industry, spaceflight and the like, and has a good application prospect.
