GE CR463L20AJA Lighting Contactor

The GE CR463L20AJA is a 120V AC electrically held contactor designed for lighting control circuits. It serves electricians and facility managers who need reliable switching for tungsten, fluorescent or LED loads in commercial or industrial installations. The two-pole, non-reversing unit operates from a 110/115-120V AC coil and fits the CR460 series form factor.

Sustained Load Behaviour

Under continuous operation the contactor carries a 30 A inductive full-load current and a 30 A fluorescent lighting rating. Tungsten loads are rated at 20 A while LED drivers are rated at 10 A, reflecting the higher inrush characteristics of each technology. The 1 hp single-phase rating at 120V AC and 2 hp at 240V AC indicate the motor-load capability when the same poles switch small motors.

Build and Connections

The transparent housing provides visual confirmation of contact status without removing a cover. With no integral enclosure the unit is intended for mounting inside a suitable panel or cabinet supplied by the installer. Screw terminals accept the power and control conductors, and the open frame design allows straightforward wiring access during commissioning and maintenance.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the 30 A inductive rating generate during all-day operation?

The contactor carries a 30 A inductive load at 120 V AC; heat rise follows standard magnetic-contactor design for continuous duty.

What control voltage must my circuit supply to energise the coil?

The coil operates on 110/115-120 V AC, so a compatible 120 V AC control source is required.

Can I use this 2-pole unit with an existing single-phase 240 V motor starter?

It is rated 2 hp at 240 V AC single-phase and 1 hp at 120 V AC single-phase, matching many legacy motor starters.
