🔍 Key Concepts

• Electrical interlocking using normally closed (NC) auxiliary contacts in the control circuit • How the Low-speed (LS) and High-speed (HS) contactor coils are wired in series with NC contacts from the opposite circuit • The difference between mechanical interlocking between contactors and interlocking built into the pushbuttons

💭 Think About

• On the control schematic, trace the power path from the supply, through the stop button, to each coil (LS and HS). Which NC contacts must be closed for each coil to energize? • When the low-speed contactor is energized, which NC contacts change state and what does that do to the high-speed coil circuit (and vice versa)? • Does the drawing show any physical (mechanical) linkage between the two contactors, or is all the interlocking done in the control wiring?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which contacts in the LS and HS circuits are labeled as normally closed (NC) auxiliary contacts from the opposite contactor. • Check whether the start pushbuttons themselves have NC contacts shown in series with the opposite speed coil, or only NO contacts for starting. • Confirm whether there is any symbol in the power diagram indicating mechanical interlock between LS and HS contactors, or if all interlocking is clearly electrical.
