General Electric cr463L20ATA Lighting Contactor

General Electric CR463L20ATA Lighting Contactor is a GE lighting control device engineered to remotely switch multiple lighting circuits from a single control point, simplifying wiring and coordination in complex commercial installations where centralized control can reduce maintenance and improve safety. It operates on a 347 VAC coil and is rated for 30 amps, delivering dependable actuation for mid-range lighting loads while maintaining robust contact performance under typical inductive loads encountered in lighting systems. The unit is described as a 12-pole electrical contactor, indicating a high-density array of independent contacts within one housing to manage a larger number of circuits without needing multiple separate contactors. In practical applications, the CR463L20ATA is commonly used in panel boards or switchgear configurations where centralized lighting control is desired, assuming the installation matches the coil voltage and current specifications to the control circuit and the loads being switched. When selecting this device, ensure the 12-pole configuration aligns with the number of lighting channels you intend to control and that the 347 VAC coil voltage is compatible with your control wiring to guarantee reliable operation and proper electrical clearance.
