Note
The selection of contactor types refers to a fused design.

connection
cross-section
For a contactor assembly for star-delta (wye-delta) start, e.g. 3RA2426-8XH32-2BB4
(22 kW, 50 A), it is possible to select the following connection type with a 6 mm
2
conductor
cross-section:
● Remove the upper wiring modules to connect the main current paths between line
contactor (Q 11) and delta contactor (Q 13).
● Separate infeed of line contactor (Q 11) and delta contactor (Q 13) with 6 mm
2
(permitted
in a three-way network).
Two conductors per phase with 6 mm
2
conductor cross-section are connected to the
central infeed short-circuit protection device and only one conductor per phase to the
contactors.
