Those are live 220V when the switch is on. 

Wow that looks incredibly unsafe. a random strand of wire could fly in there and ruin your day. Well thanks so much for sharing, the information you provide on this forum is very helpful

If it's literally an AC contactor, that's crazy. I'd question if it was capable of handling that type of continuous cycling. 

So far I've seen now:

LY2 Relays

Solid State Relays

AC contactor

The crazy thing to me, this new SHAKER uses 220V for the takeup motor. Crazy stupid for the little/no protection it has. It's like a cheap screw on plug that has MALE prongs that are LIVE. 

At least the first one had this as a standard 12V DC plug running 12V. 

 

Yeah I'm not sure how well it would perform. For the takeup motor, did yours look similar to this? The outlet thing looks and feels super cheap and lightweight, and its connected to the LYN2 relay, the contactor is connected to the heating elements. Seems like one of them is connected to the contactor directly, and the other two are in parallel connecting to the contactor 

Just adding my $0.02. Seems like all of these cheap shakers have some sort of weird differences. Mine for example doesn't use two relays. The heating element on mine uses an AC contactor.
