Ignition Power Relay Kit

The PERTRONIX IGNITION Ignition Power Relay Kit (Model 2001) is a 30-amp relay switch assembly rated for 12V and 16V electrical systems. This universal kit includes a complete wiring harness, eliminating the need for additional fabrication or splicing. Designed for automotive ignition and electrical circuit applications, the relay distributes power efficiently while protecting downstream components from voltage spikes and current surges typical in vintage and modern ignition systems.

The 30-amp switching capacity handles the sustained current demands of high-output ignition systems, fuel pumps, and auxiliary accessories without thermal stress or relay chatter. Dual voltage compatibility (12V/16V) expands application range across different vehicle electrical architectures. The pre-assembled harness reduces installation time and minimizes connection errors—critical factors when retrofitting upgraded ignition systems into older vehicles or addressing weak-spark conditions caused by worn factory switching components. PERTRONIX manufactures this relay to OEM electrical specifications, ensuring voltage regulation and switching reliability under variable load conditions.

This kit serves restorers upgrading to electronic or performance ignition systems, street rod builders integrating modern electrical architecture into vintage chassis, and technicians troubleshooting spark loss or fuel delivery issues rooted in undersized factory relays. The universal design and included wiring harness make it a plug-in solution for most applications requiring a robust power distribution point. Proper relay switching is foundational to consistent ignition timing and fuel system operation, especially in high-heat engine compartments where relay failure can cause running problems or complete loss of ignition.
