I just want to be sure the relay rated at 30\40 A at 12 V can handle 20A at 36 V on the load side. So my amp draw is less than rated but my voltage is higher than rated.</span></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1462708679376_4378"><span>Hank</span></div> <div class="qtdSeparateBR"><br><br></div><div class="yahoo_quoted" style="display: block;"> <div style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;"> <div style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"> <div dir="ltr"><font size="2" face="Arial"> On Saturday, May 7, 2016 7:16 PM, Sean T.
