Re: [Electronics_101] Re: How to test contactor coil

i sent you a lin k and explanation of both of these last nite . no ac1 is
the max load rated across the contacts not the coil. the coil should be
energized generally dby low voltage ie 24 volts from a seperated power
supply. the l1, l2, l3 terminals a are for incoming power and the t1,t2,t3
are for outgoing current
