Wiring a contactor for Push Buttons.

Aug 14, 2005 1 Replies

I have a GE Contactor CR306Y1 with heaters that I am trying to wire for my motor starter. I understand how to energize the coil but can not find the other tap so I can integrate a start AND stop push button control box. I have a Square D where it is very clearly labeled 1,2,3 corresponding to the switches.



Does this model not offer this function? How can I test for the right terminal if there even is one.
