I'm not familiar with this particular device but suspect it is normal. If testing a solid-state device the normal ohms scale will not give an accurate reading due to the way it measures and diode effect (junction resistance and biasing on the junction) use the diode test position on your meter.

Also remember when choosing a relay your amps will not draw max-current normally, only at full power output.
