Power Pole Kits

The kits in Power Poles for Type L or LX are used to add 30 A power poles to existing Type L contactors when additional circuits are required. Type L lighting contactors come with mounting brackets, so that adder poles may be mounted from the front by a single captive screw. Adder poles come standard with N.O. contacts which are convertible to N.C.

For How to Order Information, see Catalog Interpretation, Type S Starters.

note

12 N.C. poles are only available with a 120 V coil (V02).

Footnotes

  1. Conforms to NEMA -410 -2015 and UL508: Table 46.1 and Section 61C test procedures for LED loads up to 16 A at 120 V. Devices were tested to 20 A at 120 V and conform to the test requirements.
  2. Factory conversion of N.O. contacts to N.C., order by catalog number (for example, for 6 N.O. and 2 N.C. poles on an 8 pole contactor, order as 8903LG62V02). Versions are available from the factory with up to 12 N.C. poles for Type L (electrically held) or 2, 4, or 6 N.C. poles for Type LX (mechanically held). For field conversion, there is a maximum of eight N.C. poles for Type L (electrically held) and a maximum of six N.C. poles for Type LX (mechanically held) contactors.
  3. Cannot support control transformer Forms.
  4. NEMA 12 enclosures can be field modified for outdoor non-corrosive and non–service entrance rated applications. See Selection for more information.
  5. Separate enclosures are available for these devices. It may be possible to improve delivery by ordering an open type contactor and separate Class 9991 enclosure.
  6. Replace the three bullets (●●●) in the catalog number with the coil voltage code. Refer to the standard voltage codes listed in Hub Sizes. All lighting contactors come with separate control as standard.
  7. When ordering Form C on mechanically held devices, you must also includeForm R6.
  8. 8903LO (electrically held) devices can accommodate 10 or 12 N.C. contacts use only 120 V 60Hz coils.
  9. LO60 and LXO60: add single-pole kits only, 1 on each side, for converting to 8-pole. To maintain proper operation, the contactor cannot be converted to more than 8 poles.
    LO80 and LXO80: use single-pole kits, 1 on each side, for converting to 10-pole and use two-pole kits, 1 on each side, for converting to 12-pole.
    LO1000 and LXO1000: remove the existing single-pole kit and install two-pole kits, 1 on each side, for converting to 12-pole.
