The Schneider Electric LC1F5002G7 is a 2-pole TeSys F contactor rated for 700 A in AC-1 duty (resistive load) at ≤440 V, with a 120 VAC 40–400 Hz control coil. That AC-1 rating means it's built for switching resistive heaters, ovens, and lighting banks — not motor starts. The 2 NO power poles handle the line current directly. Standards compliance covers IEC 60947-4-1 and EN 60947-4-1, so it's accepted across most industrial panels worldwide. Rated insulation voltage is 1000 V per IEC 60947-4-1, with an impulse withstand of 8 kV — solid for 400 V class distribution.
Lifecycle reality — end-of-life status
This part is end-of-life (eol_hot) — Schneider has discontinued it.
Plate-mount only — no DIN-rail clip on this frame. The footprint is 233 mm wide by 238 mm tall by 232 mm deep. Power circuit connections use bar (up to 40 x 5 mm busbar) or ring-lug terminals for 2 x 240 mm² cable. Torque the power terminals to 35 N.m; control circuit screw clamps get 1.2 N.m. Operating altitude goes to 3000 m without derating, so it's fine for high-altitude installations. The TH protective treatment adds humidity resistance for tropical or washdown environments.
Electrical performance and protection
Closing time is 40–65 ms; opening takes 100–170 ms. Rated breaking capacity is 4000 A per IEC 60947-4-1. For short-circuit protection, the associated fuse is 500 A aM or 800 A gG at ≤440 V. Heat dissipation runs 18 W total, or 88 W per pole in AC-1. Mechanical durability is 10 million cycles. Coil hold-in power is 18 VA at 20 °C; inrush is 1100 VA. The control circuit voltage limits are 0.85–1.1 Uc for pickup and 0.3–0.5 Uc for dropout at 55 °C. Overvoltage category III applies — suitable for fixed-installation distribution panels.
