It carries a 27 A AC-3 rating at 480 V, which means it handles the inrush and running current of a three-phase induction motor up to that load — the rating that governs real-world motor switching, not the higher resistive (AC-1) figure.
That buys you options when the gland plate or busbar layout forces an odd angle.
Main contacts accept 1–10 mm² solid or stranded (two conductors per terminal: 2x 0.5–1.5 mm² or 2x 0.75–2.5 mm²).
Rated for 750 switching cycles per hour in AC-3 duty (motor start/stop), and 1000 cycles/h in AC-1 (resistive). That is typical for a general-purpose S0 contactor — adequate for conveyor, pump, and fan cycling, but not for high-speed indexing or servo-style reversals (those need AC-4 rated gear at 250 cycles/h).
