2 Way Contactor Switch

[thewiz]

Hello all

i have never done this before or even seen it down here. 

Any one ever installed a 2 way switch that controls 1 contactor?

I assume this would be wired as a normal switch i.e. switching a light but in this case the pad would be the contactor ??

yep, loads of times in factories etc,

Fit snubbers across the contactor coil, otherwise standard light switches might not last long.
