Hello Gayrat,

You can power the ESP32 with an AC-DC adapter that outputs 5V through the microUSB input. Then, you can use the ESP32 Vin and GND pins to power the relay module.

To control the relays in the In1-In2-In3-In4 pins, you can use the ESP32 GPIOs, because even though they only output 3.3V they can control the relays on/off.

Thank you for answer!

I’m try to test it, but relay don’t open (only led is lighting).
Do you use logic converter level? :

You shouldn’t need a logic level converter, because it looks like your relay module already has optocouplers.

Can you try to turn the relays on and off with an Arduino board?

Just to see if with your particular relay board requires 5V signals in the IN pins to actually turn the relay on.

If it needs a 5V signals, you’ll need to use a logic level converter as you suggested.
