General Electric CR306D0LAA AC Magnetic Motor Starter

General Electric's CR306D0LAA AC Magnetic Motor Starter is a Size 2 device used to start and stop motors by energizing a control circuit. It is rated for 45 amps at 240 volts, making it suitable for mid-range motor loads in control panels and equipment. As an AC magnetic starter, it uses an electromagnet to operate a main contact set, providing a direct, electrically controlled means to switch motor power from a separate control circuit, typically commanded by pushbuttons or relays within an industrial control system. The Size 2 designation indicates its mounting footprint and form factor within GE's line of starters, enabling straightforward integration in panel boards and compact control enclosures. With a 240V supply and 45A capacity, this starter helps match motor loads to appropriate protective devices and wiring, supporting reliable operation for motors within those electrical specifications in industrial applications. Designed for panel-mounted installations, it supports typical control-circuit wiring and is compatible with standard motor-control practices in industrial environments.
