A Contactor is an electrically controlled switch that is used to control a larger power load.

The Hager ESC440 contactor is commonly controlled by a circuit with much less current then the contactor switch circuit. It is ideal for controlling the power to electric motors and large lighting applications.

The ESC440 is a 40 Amp contactor - which is a perfect size to control the power going to a inductive load such as a pool pump, hot water system etc. Can be used in conjunction with any timer to satisfy inductive loads.
