Overview

The ABB CA4-10K-T is a front-mounted, 1-pole auxiliary contact block designed for auxiliary and control circuits in standard industrial environments. This block features push-in spring terminals, eliminating the need for tools and reducing wiring time by up to 50% compared to traditional screw terminals. Engineered for compatibility with ABB AF09 to AF96 contactors and NF contactor relays, the CA4-10K-T supports flexible and solid conductor connections ranging from 0.5 mm² to 2.5 mm², with a required stripping length of 10 mm. This model provides instantaneous normally open (N.O.) contacts, making it suitable for signaling, interlocking, and control applications within motor protection and control systems. The block is clearly marked with its function for easy identification. Its compact design contributes to space-efficient installations. The CA4-10K-T is compatible with UL/CSA standards (1 or 2 x AWG 18-14) and is rated for a maximum voltage of 690 V AC and a maximum current of 10 A, ensuring reliable performance in demanding applications. The contact block has a mechanical durability of up to 10 million operations, enhancing its longevity in industrial settings.
