Power Pole Modules

 

Power pole modules are available in either single pole 
(49LCPP1A) or double pole (49LCPP2A) versions.

Main Base

 

The base of the lighting contactor has provisions to 
accept up to six power pole modules for a total of  
twelve power poles. A combination of normally open 
(N.O.) and normally closed (N.C.) contacts may be  
assembled but with a maximum of eight N.C. contacts.

Control Module Kits

Conversion from an electrically held to a mechanically held 
contactor can be accomplished with a control module kit. 
Kits are available for both 2-wire and 3-wire control in a  
variety of control voltages. The control module is available 
up to 277V maximum. For control voltage greater than 
277V, use a control transformer. Refer to Replacement 
Parts and Accessories for catalog numbers. Instruction 
and wiring diagrams can be found in the control module 
instruction sheets.

Assembly

Positions 1 through 4 on the base can be  
configured to either normally open (N.O.) or  
normally closed (N.C.) while positions 5 and 6  
can only be configured as normally open (N.O.).  
Each position can accept one power pole module.  
Each power pole module can consist of either a  
single or double power pole.

Auxiliary Contact

The auxiliary contact blocks are  
available in either single pole  
(49LCAC1PA) or double pole  
(49LCAC2PA) versions. Auxiliary  
contacts can be installed on either  
 side of the base. When installed on  
the RIGHT side, the auxiliary contact 
functions as a N.C. contact. When 
installed on the LEFT side, the auxiliary 
contact functions as a N.O. contact.
