IEC 3-pole motor starter
The Schneider Electric LC2D12G7V is a TeSys Deca magnetic contactor rated for 12 A inductive and 25 A resistive loads at 120 V AC. It provides three power poles and a built-in 1NO/1NC auxiliary contact block for control-circuit feedback. The unit mounts on a standard DIN rail or a flat plate using screw-clamp terminals for secure wiring.
Sustained-load behaviour
With a 12 A inductive rating the contactor handles continuous motor starting and stopping without derating, while the 25 A resistive capacity supports heating or lighting circuits under steady-state conditions. The reversing capability allows forward/reverse motor control when paired with a second contactor and mechanical interlock. Silver-alloy contacts resist welding during frequent inrush currents.
Thermal and power profile
The 120 V AC coil draws modest hold-in power, keeping enclosure temperature rise low during extended duty cycles. No integral fan means silent operation, and the open-frame design relies on natural convection around the 3.03 in high by 3.54 in wide body. Screw-clamp terminals minimise voltage drop, reducing wasted energy in the control panel.

Questions about this item
Does the 120 V AC coil produce noticeable hum or heat when energised continuously?
The coil is rated for 120 V AC operation and the contactor carries up to 12 A inductive or 25 A resistive load; normal magnetic hum is present and the unit is designed for continuous duty without overheating.
What mounting hardware and control wiring are needed to install this contactor?
It mounts on a standard DIN rail or flat plate using screw-clamp terminals for both power and auxiliary circuits; you supply the rail or plate, wire, and a 120 V AC control source.
Will the 3-pole, 12 A inductive rating work with an older motor starter that uses a similar IEC frame?
The TeSys Deca frame measures 3.03 in high by 3.54 in wide with 3 power poles and 1NO/1NC auxiliaries, so it fits existing DIN-rail layouts and matches legacy IEC wiring patterns.
