We shall be looking at the various Switch gears and the numbering of their contacts. Switch gears such as contactors, timers and relay.
As an engineer you have to know all the contacts of these switch gears which will permit you to carry out installations easily.
These switch gears here include:

Contactor contact numbering

Thermal relays
Thermal relay contact

Timers. etc.
Here are the various switch gears and their contacts number.


  • Normally open contacts (NO)

1) Contactor
Contactor -  13 & 14
Contactor  - 33 & 34
