The LC1K12015Y7 is a TeSys K three-pole contactor from Schneider Electric, designed for control applications switching motor loads. It carries a rated operational current of 20 A with utilisation categories AC-3, AC-4, and AC-1 — meaning it handles motor starting (AC-3), plugging/inching (AC-4), and resistive loads (AC-1). Motor power capability spans 3 kW at 220...230 V AC up to 5.5 kW at 380...415 V AC and 4 kW at 480 V AC, 500...600 V AC, and 660...690 V AC — all at 50/60 Hz. The coil is wound for 660...690 V AC, so verify your control voltage matches that range before wiring.
Integration notes
Heat dissipation is 1.3 W, so no special ventilation is required in most panels. The pole contact composition is 3 NO with one NC auxiliary contact built in. Flame retardance meets UL 94 V1 and NF F 16-101/102 requirements, which is relevant for rail and industrial compliance checks.
