Hi Guys

Most relays will work reliably in this situation and have sufficient ratings to do so. You have to look at the entire data sheet, not just the bullet points.Look specifically at the insulation ratings.Relays with footprints the size of a DIP (IC package) usually have good ratings. Even the smaller IM-series at 0.2" width (5mm) has sufficient ratings for this app.

Have fun
