two contecter <<>> There are three contactors used in a Star Delta configuration.
The size of the contactors are dependant upon what the voltage the motor is operating on.
Generally relays or contactors If you are talking about an electric panel in your house, they are called breakers.
Sequencers are preferred over contactors in ductwork applications primarily due to their ability to provide more precise control of multiple devices, such as fans and dampers, in HVAC systems. They can sequence the operation of these devices based on specific conditions, improving energy efficiency and system performance. Additionally, sequencers reduce the electrical load during startup, minimizing wear on equipment and enhancing reliability. Their programmability allows for greater flexibility in system management compared to the simpler on/off functionality of contactors.
Relays and Contactors are electromagnetic switches. The onlydifference is that relays are usually used for low voltageapplications while contactors are used for higher voltageapplication. Contactors usually have Overload protection.Some examples that I can give (at least in Manufacturing ofIndustrial Control panels):-Relays are use as electromagnetic switches to controlcertain parts of a circuit (low voltage application). Abetter example would be such as if you want your circuit tosound a horn when a certain abnormality is happening at acertain period of time, then depending how you set up yourcircuit, a specific relay will either open or close and youhorn will start making the sound.-Contactors can be used for example, to start motors or anumber of motors that require a higher voltage in order forthe motor or motors start working. In the example that Ijust gave, contactors work as starters.
