Contactor Auxiliary Contact

Last updated: June 9, 2026

A supplementary low-current contact block mechanically linked to a contactor’s main power contacts, used in control circuits to provide status feedback, interlock logic, or seal-in functions. Auxiliary contacts are available in normally open and normally closed configurations and can often be added to a base contactor as bolt-on accessories.
