Product Overview
The Household Contactor – 1P (Single Pole) is a modular contactor designed for use in single‑phase electrical control applications. It acts as a remote control switch that can open or close circuits carrying AC loads, enabling automatic or manual control of loads such as lighting, heating, fans, ventilation systems, roller blinds, and domestic hot water systems. Designed to be compact and DIN‑rail mountable, it integrates easily into distribution boards and control panels for residential or commercial buildings.
Household contactors are typically used where loads need to be switched frequently or controlled from a remote signal (e.g., from a timer, sensor, or automation system). They are especially useful for load shedding — disconnecting non‑essential circuits during high energy demand to prioritize critical loads.
Key Features
Single Pole (1P) Configuration: Controls one phase of a single‑phase circuit.
Remote Switching: Enables remote control of lighting, HVAC, motors, and auxiliary circuits.
Modular Design: Compact design suitable for DIN‑rail or panel integration.
Load‑Shedding Capability: Ideal for disconnecting non‑priority circuits under automation or power management systems.
Safe Electrical Isolation: Provides reliable separation between control and power circuits.
Rated for AC Loads: Compatible with typical residential and light commercial power systems (e.g., heating, fans, lights).
technical parameters
Typical Application
The Household Contactor – 1P is widely used in:
Residential distribution boards for lighting control
HVAC systems (fans, ventilation, heating) automation
Control of motorized roller blinds or shutters
Domestic hot water and pump load control
Automation systems that require dynamic load management
Load shedding of non‑critical circuits during peak load conditions
FAQ
A household contactor remotely switches AC electrical loads such as lighting, heating, and ventilation, based on control signals from timers, sensors, or automation systems.
Can a 1P contactor be integrated into a distribution panel?
Yes, 1P contactors are often used in load shedding schemes to disconnect non‑priority loads when needed.
