#140561 - How Big a Motor
Responding to: ???'s previous message
One way is the electrical Noise from the relay spark being transmitted to the low voltage wires.
Another is inductive coupling if the low and high voltage wires run together.
Yes, the Motor start up current can cause a local voltage dip, that your power supply / wiring should be designed to handle.
