2. NEMA contact ratings - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NEMA_contact_ratings

   NEMA contact ratings are how much current at a rated voltage a relay or other pilot device can switch. The current rating of smaller NEMA contactors or their auxiliaries are defined by NEMA ICS 5: Industrial Control and Systems, Control Circuit and Pilot Devices [1] standard. The nomenclature is a letter followed by a three-digit number, the ...

3. Contact protection - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_protection

   These different ratings are due to contacts being designed to compensate for the destructive arcing that naturally occurs between the electrodes during normal Wet operation. Contact arcing is so destructive that the electrical life of power relays and contactors is most often a fraction of their respective mechanical life. [1] [2] From left to ...

4. NEMA connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NEMA_connector

   NEMA wiring devices are made in current ratings from 15 to 60 amperes (A), with voltage ratings from 125 to 600 volts (V). Different combinations of contact blade widths, shapes, orientations, and dimensions create non-interchangeable connectors that are unique for each combination of voltage, electric current carrying capacity, and grounding ...

6. Electrical contact - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_contact

   An electrical contact is an electrical circuit component found in electrical switches, relays, connectors and circuit breakers. [1] Each contact is a piece of electrically conductive material, typically metal .

7. Contact breaker - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_breaker

   Breaker arm with contact points at the left. The pivot is on the right and the cam follower is in the middle of the breaker arm. A contact breaker (or "points") is a type of electrical switch, found in the ignition systems of spark-ignition internal combustion engines. The switch is automatically operated by a cam driven by the engine.
