The ABB UA95‑30‑00 is a 3‑phase, 3‑pole contactor intended primarily for capacitor switching or lighter duty power‑circuit control (rather than heavy motor switching). It offers reliable switching of three-phase circuits, with a compact design suitable for control panels, capacitor banks, or power‑factor correction systems. The design supports a broad control-voltage range (depending on coil variant), giving flexibility for different control‑voltage supplies. The contactor features robust main‑circuit terminals (bar or cable‑clamp type), and is rated for up to 1000 V AC in the main circuit (IEC standard). Its electrical and mechanical durability makes UA95‑30‑00 a solid choice for capacitor switching, reactive-power management, or general three-phase load control in industrial/commercial installations.
