Contactor accessories are parts and components that are designed to be used with contactors. Contactors are devices used as a switches in an electrical power circuit, which can be controlled remotely. They are often designed to deal with a much higher current level than electrical relays and are also often physically larger.

Contactor accessories are all the component parts used alongside contactor devices. They are either replacements for parts or tweaks or enhancements to the function of contactors. For example, they may improve safety or assist in connecting the device to the circuit.

There is a wide range of contactor accessories, but some common categories include:

• Mounting Accessories: depending on where the contactor needs to be displayed
