These are DC-1 resistive load ratings; for inductive DC loads the arcing time of 10–15 ms means the contact gap must extinguish the arc within that window, so verify the load time constant against the contactor's DC switching curve. The main circuit carries a rated impulse withstand voltage of 6 kV. Terminals are screw-type, accepting 2x (0.5–1.5 mm²), 2x (0.75–2.5 mm²), or max 2x (0.75–4 mm²) solid or stranded copper. The contactor is rated for operation up to 2,000 m altitude without derating. This allows panel layouts where the contactor sits at an angle to fit cable routing or busbar access.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3RT1516-1AP00 SIRIUS Power Contactor, Size S00, 10 A","metaDescription":"Siemens SIRIUS 3RT1516-1AP00 power contactor, size S00. 10 A at 24 V DC, screw terminals, IP20, DIN-rail mount.
