in Contactor opearation Why there is a difference in the values of the operate and release voltage..

Answer / Sheeshpal Singh

The difference in operating and release voltages in an AC contactor is due to the magnetic characteristics of the contactor. During operation, the higher current requires a higher magnetizing force (volt-seconds) to close the contacts. This results in a slightly higher required voltage for operation compared to release, where the contacts are separating under lower current.
