The main contact controls the load current to the motor, whereas the auxiliary contact is part of the control circuit -usually connected in parallel with the 'on' pushbutton switch to maintain the control circuit in the energised state, once the on pushbutton has been pressed.

The main contact in a magnetic contactor is the primary contact used to control the flow of current to the load. The auxiliary contact is an additional contact that is used for signaling or monitoring purposes, such as indicating the status of the contactor or controlling other devices in the circuit.
