When choosing, first match the rated power and current to the load and leave a margin: a motor draws several times its rated current at start-up. Note the control-coil voltage (220 V AC or another) — it must match your control circuit. For protection add a thermal overload relay or a circuit breaker. A contactor usually mounts on a DIN rail. Delivery across Tbilisi and the regions.

Frequently asked questions

How do I pick a contactor for a motor?

The motor's rated power and current must be below the contactor's ratings, with a margin for the starting current.

Does a contactor protect a motor from overload?

No, it only switches the circuit. You need a thermal relay or a circuit breaker for overload protection.
