Normally closed nc contacts allow current through when the relay or contactor is not energized.
Normally open contactor wiring diagram.
2 days ago i wired 380 to 440 volts contactor for a 3 phase motor and save these images of contactor in pc.
Now let s go through a real world example of normally open and normally closed contacts that we are all familiar with.
Programmable unijunction transistor scr.
Subscribe a simple breakdown of how a normally open switch no should operate vs how a normally closed switch nc should operate when wired correctly.
Study the contactor manufacturer information.
The may be 2 or more sets of output contacts identified.
For instance the following diagram shows a normally open pushbutton switch controlling a lamp on a 120 volt ac circuit the hot and neutral poles of the ac power source labeled l1 and l2 respectively.
The manufacturer information will identify the 2 input pins for 120 volts ac control.
