A shading coil in a contactor is used to hold the AC contactor's pole faces closed during the transition of the voltage through the zero voltage phase of an electrical cycle.

How do you connect float switches for a single phase motor through contactor and Over Load Relay?
you would wire a float switch into the control circuit i.e, the contactor coil (which is relatively low current but rated at least for the control voltage,, in most cases 120VAC). also in the same circuit would be the overload contacts. if the overload trips and/or the float switch opens then voltage is removed from the contactor coil
How do you wire a three phase forward - reverse starter?
You start with a normal one way circuit consisting of a three phase contactor and an three phase overload in series for the forward circuit. Then you add the reverse contactor in parallel with the forward contactor but with line one and line two crossed over i.e. when the reverse contactor is made, line one of the supply will be connected to line two of the motor and line two of the supply to line one of the motor. The control circuit must also be interlocked to prevent forward and reverse being energized at the same time.
How do electrical contactors work?
A contactor is an electrically controlled switch (relay) used for switching a power circuit. an electro pneumatic contactor is similar to the above except it uses a pneumatic signal to initiate the switching of the electric power circuit. an electro magnetic contactor is a contactor driven by an electric control signal. It us usually just called a contactor.
What is a tap on a Tesla Coil and where should you wire it?
If you are working with a coil, you should have all parts of the coil and knowledge to work with them. In the related links box below, I posted a websited which has all this knowledge and another one about builduing the tesla coil.

How do you activate 240v coil using a 240v contactor?
The coil can be operated by taking one leg of the 240 volts from the top of the contactor and connecting it to one terminal of the coil. Take the other leg of the 240 volts from the top of the contactor and connect it to the device used to turn the contactor off and on. From this switching device take the switched wire and connect it to the other terminal on the contactor's coil. Now when the switching device is activated the contactor will open and close.Before you do any work yourself,on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energizedIF YOU ARE NOT REALLY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.
How relay is used to control induction motor?
If you want to control induction motor using a control relay give neutral directly to the one point of coil of relay & one point of coil of contactor then give control supply through push button to second point of coil of relay. use one NO point of relay and give supply to coil of contactor. and also use one NO of contactor for holding the contactor & take OFF (NC) in the starting to stop motor after complition of work. It is jut like an Direct On-line starter.

How do you wire a DOL starter controlled by a pressure switch for a water pump?
Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hz supply service.The wiring of this type of installation is quite elementary. It is all about the control voltage for the magnetic contactor and having the pressure switch in series with the contactor's coil.If the pump supply voltage is 120 volts, take a wire from L1 on the contactor and place it on the normally closed contact point on the overload block.From the N.C. contact on the overload block take a wire to one side of the pressure switch.From the output side of the pressure switch contact take the wire back to one side of the contactor's coil.Connect the other side of the contactor's coil to the neutral wire from the supply.Now you will have three components in series with each other. The overload block, the pressure switch and the contactor's coil as the load of the circuit. When the pressure switch closes due to low pressure the coil will be energized.If the pump motor goes into an overload condition, the overload block contacts will open and de-energize the contactor's coil and the pump will shut off.As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.Before you do any work yourself,on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.

What is the circuit for float switch connection to a single phase motor?
float switches are not rated for motor currents, therefore you would need a motor starter/contactor to handle to motor current and the float switch would be wired into the coil circuit, i.e., control voltage source.. I'm guessing 120VAC wired through the float switch to the contactor coil and the other side of the coil wired through the overload contacts to neutral (white wire).

How do you wire an air compressor?
Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hz supply service.This is for a single phase air compressor whose magnetic contactor's coil voltage is the same as the supply line voltage. Take a wire from one of the line terminals L1 to one side of the contactor coil. Take another wire from the second line terminal L2 and put it to one side of a N.C. contact on the magnetic contactor's overload block. From the other side of the N.C. contact on the O/L block take a wire to the N.C. terminal on the pressure switch. From the other side of the N.C. contact on the pressure switch terminal connect the wire to the other side of the magnetic contactor's coil.As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.Before you do any work yourself,on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.
