Hi everybody
I want to get a good way to calculate the right size of contactor that is suitable for 3phase motor ; to be clear I want to know ;should I use the rated current or starting current ?
Thanks for all

I'm not getting it and only have the horrid VLC on my phone. :)

Is it worth the hassle to see the vid Scotty? What's it actually showing, just the ball mill or the contactors?

A few seconds of grainy footage of contactors and the drum switch, and some bright flashes. The sound is what adds the drama to the clip. :-)
