IEC Magnetic Contactor 18 A

The Schneider Electric LC1D18U7 is a three-pole IEC magnetic contactor rated for 18 A inductive loads at 240 V AC. It suits panel builders and maintenance engineers who need a compact TeSys Deca device for motor-starting or resistive switching duties. Two built-in auxiliary contacts (1 NO / 1 NC) provide status feedback without extra modules.

DIN-rail mounting with screw-clamp terminals

The unit clips onto standard DIN rail or can be plate-mounted, and all power and control connections use screw-clamp terminals that accept solid or stranded conductors. Clear terminal markings reduce wiring errors, but the contactor ships without an enclosure, so installers must provide a suitable cabinet or guard to meet local safety codes.

18 A inductive rating at 240 V AC

The single figure that decides fit is the 18 A full-load inductive current at 240 V AC three-phase, which corresponds to approximately 5 hp motor loads. Select this contactor only when the controlled circuit stays within that current and voltage envelope.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the contactor is operating correctly once it is wired and powered?

Apply 240 V AC to the coil and listen for the audible click; then measure continuity across the three main poles — they should show a closed circuit when energised and open when de-energised, while the 1NO auxiliary contact closes and the 1NC auxiliary contact opens.

What ships with the LC1D18U7 and what must I source separately?

The contactor body with screw-clamp terminals and DIN-rail mounting plate is included; you will need to supply the 240 V AC control wiring, suitably rated power conductors for the 18 A load, and any overload relay or enclosure you require.

Which coil voltage and current rating should I select for a 240 V AC, 18 A inductive load?

Choose the LC1D18U7 — its coil is rated for 240 V AC and the main contacts are rated 18 A inductive (5 hp at 240 V AC three-phase), matching the stated load exactly.
