A relay has a main body with a base. An electromagnetic switching mechanism is arranged on the base. A contact arrangement includes at least one stationary contact spring and at least one moveable contact spring arranged on a first side of the main body. The moveable contact spring has a first portion extending substantially perpendicular to the base that is actuatable by the electromagnetic switching mechanism and a second portion extending substantially parallel to the base that extends from the first side of the main body to an opposing second side of the main body. A terminal contact extends from the second portion on the second side of the main body.
