The Schneider LC1F1154G6L is a 4-pole (4 NO) TeSys F contactor rated for 200 A in AC-1 utilisation category, meaning it is designed for resistive loads — heaters, ovens, lighting banks — not for motor starting (that would be AC-3). The coil pulls 120 V AC at 60 Hz, with an inrush of 660 VA at 60 Hz and a hold-in draw of 55 VA. Closing time runs 23 to 35 ms; opening is faster at 5 to 15 ms. That operating speed matters when you need to sequence multiple contactors in a heating zone — the spread is tight enough to avoid overlap on a resistive bank.
This is a plate-mount contactor (no DIN-rail clip), so plan for a backplate or sub-panel. Dimensions are 7.9 in wide by 10.4 in tall by 6.7 in deep — that is a substantial footprint, roughly the size of a small loaf. Power connections are bolted, accepting two bars 20 x 3 mm or ring terminals up to 95 mm². Torque the power circuit to 88.5 lbf·in (10 N·m) and the control circuit to 10.6 lbf·in (1.2 N·m).
The headline number is 200 A at ≤ 440 V AC in AC-1 duty. That is the resistive load rating — do not use it for motor starting at that current without derating to AC-3. For motor loads, the UL/CSA horsepower ratings are the ones to watch: 30 hp at 200 V AC, 40 hp at 230 V AC, 75 hp at 460 V AC, and 100 hp at 575 V AC. The rated breaking capacity is 920 A per IEC 60947-4-1, and the associated fuse recommendation is 125 A aM or 200 A gG at ≤ 440 V. The contactor is TH-treated for tropical environments (protective treatment against humidity and fungus).
