Characterisation on load types
Standard IEC 61095 applies to electromechanical contactors for domestic and
similar purposes. It differs from standard IEC 60947.4 (designed for industrial
applications) by specific requirements relating to safety of persons and equipment in
premises and corridors accessible to the general public.

Use for temperatures between 50 and 60 °C
When contactors are mounted in enclosures with an internal temperature of between
50 and 60 °C, a spacer, catalogue number 27062, must be placed between each
contactor.
