IEC 32 A 480 V AC contactor
This Schneider Electric Square D LC1D32T7 is a three-pole IEC magnetic contactor rated for 32 A inductive and 50 A resistive loads at 480 V AC. It suits industrial control panels and motor-starter assemblies that require a compact non-reversing switching device. The unit mounts on DIN rail or a plate and uses screw-clamp terminals for secure wiring.
Replaces older non-reversing IEC starters
The contactor provides a direct drop-in for legacy three-pole units with the same coil voltage and pole count when panel space is limited to the 3.35 in height and 1.77 in width envelope. Upgrading is worthwhile when the existing starter lacks the 1NO/1NC auxiliary contacts needed for modern interlock or status-feedback circuits. No enclosure is included, so the swap assumes an existing NEMA-rated cabinet.
Handles 32 A inductive motor loads
The 32 A inductive rating covers typical fractional to medium horsepower motors on 480 V systems, while the 50 A resistive rating supports heating and lighting circuits with comfortable headroom. The two built-in auxiliary contacts manage control-circuit signalling without extra accessories. The device reaches its limit when the application demands reversing operation or a higher inductive current than 32 A.

Questions about this item
What DIN-rail width and panel clearance does the 1.77 in wide contactor need?
The unit is 1.77 in wide and 3.35 in tall, so allow that footprint plus wiring space on a standard 35 mm DIN rail or a flat mounting plate.
Which terminals accept the 480 V AC coil leads and the 32 A main poles?
Both coil and power connections use screw-clamp terminals; strip the wire, insert into each clamp, and tighten to the torque printed on the device.
When should the 1NO/1NC auxiliary contacts be checked or replaced?
Inspect the auxiliary contacts during routine panel maintenance; replace them if they show pitting, overheating discoloration, or fail to switch cleanly at 32 A inductive load.
