For severe switching like reversing or inching (AC-4), it handles 55 A at 400 V, so it survives the arcing of frequent plugging without welding contacts. The solid wire range is 2x (0.5... 1.5 mm²), 2x (0.75... 2.5 mm²), max. 2x (0.75... 4 mm²); stranded accepts 2x (10... 50 mm²). That's enough cross-section for the 55 A AC-4 current without doubling up lugs. ## Operating conditions and durability","metaTitle":"Siemens 3RT1044-1AB04 SIRIUS Power Contactor, S3, 37 kW at 5","metaDescription":"Siemens SIRIUS 3RT1044-1AB04 power contactor, size S3, 37 kW at 500 V, AC-4 55 A at 400 V.
