NEMA contact ratings
NEMA contact ratings are how much current at a rated voltage a relay or other pilot device can switch. The current rating of smaller NEMA contactors or their auxiliaries are defined by NEMA ICS 5: Industrial Control and Systems, Control Circuit and Pilot Devices[1] standard. The nomenclature is a letter followed by a three digit number, the letter designates the current rating of the contacts and the current type (i.e., AC or DC) and the number designates the maximum voltage design values.

gollark: They're like index.html for a namespace.
gollark: They're namespace indexes.
gollark: ... please move it, then. It *should* not mess with the links, I don't know.
gollark: It may be worth moving games:original to games:original:start so that links work more nicely.
gollark: I will handle it myself.
