Abstract
A contactor comprises a contact system arranged in a housing with a magnet ystem activating the contact system. The housing, at the end thereof remote from the side of the housing at which the housing is mounted in a switch box, is closed off by a cover. The contact system comprises contact bars with contact terminal screws and stationary contact pieces, and jointly activatable bridging members having movable contact pieces and operating as normally closed and/or normally open switches. The contact bars with their contact terminal screws are arranged displaced relative to one another in planes having differing spacings from the end of the housing at which the housing is mounted on a switch box, in such a manner that each contact terminal screw is freely accessible, even after all wiring has been connected on. This makes possible direct access to connections at the terminal screws of the more deep-lying planes, and makes it possible to wire on in sequences other than beginning with the plane closest to the mounting plane.
