The Schneider Electric TeSys LG7K06M708A59 is an enclosed direct-on-line (DOL) starter in the TeSys LG family, combining a contactor, circuit-breaker, and neutral terminal in one IP55 polycarbonate box. It's a safety-rated motor starter for standard environments, built to IEC 60947-4-1 and IEC 60204-1. Rated AC-3 utilisation category, it handles 0.75 kW at 220/230 VAC and 1.5 kW at 400/415 VAC or 440 VAC, 50/60 Hz. The thermal protection adjustment range is 2.5 to 4 A, and the control circuit voltage is 220/230 VAC. The push-button control includes white start, black stop, and a red mushroom-head emergency stop — all integrated into the enclosure lid. Cable entries are 4 x Pg 13 and 2 x Pg 16 at both top and bottom.
The AC-3 rating is the key: it's the motor-switching duty class per IEC 60947-4-1, so the 0.75 kW / 1.5 kW figures are what this starter can actually commutate under load — not just carry. The 2.5-4 A thermal protection range sets the motor full-load current window; if your motor FLA falls outside that, this unit won't protect it. IP55 means the enclosure is dust-protected and hose-down resistant — fine for washdown areas but not submersion. IK07 impact rating (1 joule) means it survives a moderate tool drop. The polycarbonate material is standard for this class; it's UV-stable for indoor use but not rated for direct sunlight exposure. The 220/230 VAC coil is a single-voltage control circuit; if your panel runs 24 VDC or 110 VAC, you need a different coil variant in the LG7K family. The neutral terminal is included, simplifying wiring for single-phase control circuits.
