GE CR463 Lighting Contactor

The GE CR463L40ANA10A0 is a four-pole electrically held lighting contactor rated for 277 VAC coil voltage. It suits commercial and industrial lighting circuits where reliable magnetic switching is required.

Thermals Noise Power Draw

The contactor operates without active cooling, so it produces no fan noise and adds negligible heat to the enclosure. Power draw is limited to the coil consumption at 240 or 277 VAC during energised states.

30 A Fluorescent Rating

The decisive specification is the 30 A fluorescent lighting current rating, which sets the maximum load the device can switch. Buyers who need higher inductive or resistive current capacity cannot use this contactor.

Questions about this item

How is the 277 VAC coil wired during installation, and which terminal step is often missed?

Connect the coil leads to the 240/277V AC supply terminals matching the voltage rating, then verify the control circuit energises the coil before closing the 4 power poles; the step often missed is confirming the coil voltage matches the supply.

What maintenance will the contactor need after extended operation at the 30 A fluorescent rating?

Inspect the 4 power poles for contact erosion and the coil for overheating; replace the contactor if the inductive 30 A contacts show pitting or the coil no longer pulls in cleanly.

At what load does the 30 A inductive rating become the limiting factor during sustained use?

The 30 A inductive full-load current is the first limit reached; continuous operation above this value will cause the contactor to overheat and drop out.
