I am no expert on this but a relay will not the AMP draw on your alternator.
It sounds like you need a better / higher AMP alternator??
When you turn on your A/C your alternator is not able to keep up with all the demand.

Kool65, you have a problem either in you a/c or your alternator or generator/voltage regulator is bad. Need to hook up an ampmeter and see where the problem is.
