The 10 A rating at 24 V is the auxiliary contact current for DC control circuits — this is the contactor's coil or auxiliary switch capacity, not the main pole current. For AC main circuits, the contactor carries 42 V at 50 Hz as its rated insulation voltage, meaning it's sized for low-voltage control rather than direct motor switching at 400 V. The size S2 frame (114 mm height, 75 mm width, 130 mm depth) is a mid-range footprint — larger than S0 but smaller than S3, fitting standard 600 mm wide enclosures with room for side-by-side mounting (allowed per spec). Auxiliary contacts are screw-type terminals accepting 2x 0.5–1.5 mm² or 2x 0.75–2.5 mm² solid/stranded wire — standard for panel wiring with ferrule or direct termination.

Frequently asked questions
What are the key dimensions for panel layout?
Height 114 mm, width 75 mm, depth 130 mm. Side-by-side mounting is permitted with a 10 mm gap at the side. Forward and backward clearance is 0 mm, upward and downward clearance is 50 mm.
What wire sizes does the screw terminal accept?
The main current circuit and auxiliary terminals accept 2x 0.5–1.5 mm² or 2x 0.75–2.5 mm² solid or stranded wire.
Does 3RT2535-1AD00 drop into a panel specified for 3RT2027-1AF00?
Both are SIRIUS contactors on the 35 mm DIN rail standard, but the 3RT2535 is size S2 while the 3RT2027 series is typically smaller (size S0). Check the mounting footprint — the S2 is 75 mm wide versus S0's narrower width — so it may not fit without rail relocation or enclosure depth adjustment.
