It's rated for AC-4 switching duty at 12.5 A at 400 V — that's the category for reversing or inching motor starts where the contactor makes and breaks stalled-rotor current, so the contacts take a harder hit than a standard AC-3 run contactor.
Sizing and Coordination
For Type 2 coordination (contactor remains fully operational after a short, no contact welding), the fuse drops to gL/gG 25 A. That's the spec to hand your panel builder when they're sizing the branch circuit protection. That's the mechanism itself — electrical life will be lower and depends on the switching category and load current. For a contactor that's seeing frequent inching or reversing (AC-4), expect the electrical endurance to be a fraction of that mechanical figure.
Main circuit screw terminals accept 2x (1 to 2.5 mm²), 2x (2.5 to 6 mm²), or max 2x 10 mm² solid/stranded, with AWG equivalents of 2x (16 to 12), 2x (14 to 10), or 1x 8. Auxiliary control circuit terminals take 2x (0.5 to 1.5 mm²), 2x (0.75 to 2.5 mm²), or max 2x (0.75 to 4 mm²), with AWG 2x (20 to 16), 2x (18 to 14), or 1x 12. That covers most panel wire gauges you'd run to a contactor coil and aux contacts.
