It arrives as a kit, contactor and wiring together.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat the contactor does\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen the heater calls for heat, the contactor is the heavy duty switch that closes and sends 240 V to the heating elements. It carries a lot of current every cycle, so over years of service the contacts pit, weld or stop pulling in. The result is a heater that powers up and shows a call for heat but never actually warms the water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitting\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSupplying the wiring with the contactor keeps the replacement straightforward, since the leads are already the correct gauge and length for the ELS chassis. This is 240 V work, so isolate the heater at the breaker and have a qualified technician handle the connections if you are not comfortable in a live panel.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Raypak","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48628732723412,"sku":"RAY-151-3518","price":175.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_d0679d68-e66b-48c4-8fb9-fecaba6db3cf.png?v=1788749329","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/contactor-wire-kit","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
