It carries three normally-open power poles and one normally-closed auxiliary contact, with a 220…230 V AC coil. The same contactor also carries an AC-4 utilisation category for plugging and inching applications, where the motor is reversed or stopped by reversing the phase sequence while the rotor is still spinning. The power circuit is rated for 690 V AC 50/60 Hz, giving headroom for 400 V or 480 V line supplies. The IP20 degree of protection (per VDE 0106) means it is finger-safe for panel installation but not protected against moisture ingress — it belongs inside an enclosure.
