No worries, sorry I can't help more. Surprised that the wiring schematic does not show the rating.
Sadly no longer with us, RIP Ray, 9 Feb 2021

No it does not various circuits use it. Ranging from 10 a 15a 20a and 1 on the acc circuit at 30a....but as I intend to use on the 044 at poss 19a I wanted to but 100% It's rated at 30a. Cant make a mistake on that circuit...

The heated seats run through a 20A fuse if that's any help.

I had a look for data on the relay too. Amazing in this day and age of the internet that I couldn't find anything either  :(

Corrected - 20A fuse, just checked the diagram

I'm gonna have another look at drawings tomoz and cross ref to other Mazda cars using this relay. Acc is 30a.
Would not have thought Mazda use a 20a relay on circuit fused at 20amp mind..so extra capacity would be engineered in.

Wire it up, turn fuel pump on, see if it melts, if so no good, if not then all good.

Test it in the car. If the car loses fuel pump the engine will stop, can’t push fuel into the engine if there’s nothing to push it in with.

Been looking for rating online, can’t find anything
