3-12 Auxiliary Switch Module
The Auxiliary Switch Module, shown in Figure 22,
provides remote indication of the switch main contact
position through the terminals on the terminal block on
the left side of the switch.
Auxiliary Switch Modules are available with 4, 8, and 12
switches with ratings of 6 A at 240 Vac or 600 Vac. Addi-
tional ratings of 0.5 A at 125 Vdc and 0.25 A at 250 Vdc
apply to all models. Catalog numbers are listed in Table
17. For installation instructions see GEH-6274.
Operation
Each auxiliary switch provides two outputs that can be
used to indicate switch main contact position. The A
output is open or closed the same as the switch, while the
B output is the opposite to the switch contacts. Figure 23 is
a wiring diagram of each auxiliary switch.
The connections for the auxiliary switch outputs are
found on the terminal block on the left side of the switch
and are listed in Table 18.
