What It Does (Simple Explanation)

The contactor operates through an electromagnetic coil:

1. Control voltage energizes the coil.
2. The magnetic mechanism pulls the main contacts closed.
3. Three-phase power is supplied to the motor or load.
4. When the coil is released, contacts open and disconnect power.
