What is the AIC rating of our Type S lighting contactors?
Issue:
Would like to know the AIC rating of our Type S lighting contactors

Product Line:
NEMA and Definite Purpose Contractors and Starters

Environment:
North American Products

Resolution:
A lighting contactor does not actually have an AIC rating as it is not a circuit interrupter. It does have withstand ratings and this information can only be found on the sticky-back label that comes with the contactors. Here`s the data:

Type S 30 A - Suitable for use on a circuit capable of delivering not more than 100k @ 480V when protected by a 40 A current limiting circuit breaker, Cat. No. IFL34040; 100k @ 600V when protected by 30 A max. UL Listed Class RK5 branch circuit current limiting fuses having interrupting rating not less than 100k @ 600V; 10k @ 480V or 5k @ 600V when protected by a 40 A max. UL Listed thermal magnetic (inverse-time) circuit breaker.

Type S 60 A - Suitable for use on a circuit capable of delivering not more than 100k @ 480V when protected by a 90 A current limiting circuit breaker, Cat. No. IFL34090; 100k @ 600V when protected by 60 A max. UL Listed Class RK5 branch circuit current limiting fuses having interrupting rating not less than 100k @ 600V. And 18k @ 480V or 14k @ 600V when protected by an 80 A max. UL Listed thermal magnetic (inverse-time) circuit breaker.

Type S 100 A - Suitable for use on a circuit capable of delivering not more than 100k @ 480V when protected by a 125 A current limiting circuit breaker, Cat. No. IKL34125; 100k @ 600V when protected by 100 A max. UL Listed Class RK5 branch circuit current limiting fuses having interrupting rating not less than 100k @ 600V; 10k @ 600V when protected by a 125 A max. UL Listed thermal magnetic (inverse-time) circuit breaker.

Type S 200 A - Suitable for use on a circuit capable of delivering not more than 100k @ 480V when protected by a 225 A current limiting circuit breaker, Cat. No. IKL34225; 100k @ 480V when protected by 200 A max. UL Listed Class RK5 branch circuit current limiting fuses having interrupting rating not less than 100k @ 480V; 14k @ 600V when protected by a 250 A max. UL Listed thermal magnetic (inverse-time) circuit breaker.

Type S 300 A - Suitable for use on a circuit capable of delivering not more than 100k @ 480V when protected by a 400 A current limiting circuit breaker, Cat. No. ILL34400; 100k @ 600V when protected by 400 A max. UL Listed Class RK5 branch circuit current limiting fuses having interrupting rating not less than 100k @ 600V; 22k @ 600V when protected by a 400 A max. UL Listed thermal magnetic (inverse-time) circuit breaker.
