Can a 3 phase contactor be wired for single phase?
Yes, L1 of the single phase supply is terminated under terminal L1 of the three phase contactor. L2 of the single phase supply is terminated under terminal L2 of the three phase contactor. A conductor from output terminal T2 is then taken to input terminal L3. The single phase load is then connected to the contactor's output terminals T1 and T3. This incorporates all three of the overload blocks on the contactor into the control circuit. With the overloads in the control circuit, if an overload occurs the magnetic contactor's holding coil will drop out and take the load off line.
What causes a contactor for a 3 phase motor to kick in and out. Tha contactor was replaced with the heaters and still kicks in amd out?
See discuss question below.
Are contactor points and bimetallic strip connected to the star delta starter of 3 phase induction motor?
yes
Where would power factor capacitors be installed on a 3 phase motor?
Power factor capacitors can be installed on a three phase motor between the motor contactor and the overload heater block.
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.
Can you replace an 3 phase solid state relay with a contactor on a 3 phase heater?
Not without other modifications. The circuits used to turn the solid state relay on will not be suitable for turning a contactor on.

You found a 220volt coil on a 3 phase motor contactor and the one side of the coil is feed from B phase and the other side is also feed from B phase it would not pull in the contactor?
your not completing the circuit your only using one phase for a three phase motor

How do you use a 3 phase contactor in a single phase installation?
A CONTACTOR SHOULD NOT BE USED TO START A 3-PHASE MOTOR unless there is some sort of motor protection in series with it. You would need a 3-phase contactor and just connect each phase (1 wire) to each terminal of the line side of the contactor, and the 3 wires to the load side. 3 wires on the line side, and 3 wires on the load side.
Why isn't the fan on your outdoor AC unit coming on when you have the thermostat set to cool?
1. Bad fan motor 2. Bad fan capacitor 3. Contactor bad 4. No power to outdoor unit.
How do you tell if PlayStation 3 motherboard is bad?
The playstation 3 will not work.

What is advantage of phase sequance cheaker of 3 phase supply?
it can tell you which way a motor will turn before you apply power sometimes nice to know
How do you wire up a three phase coil contactor from scratch running it through a stop start switch?
This is pretty 'straightforward'. Turning the contactor on or off is accomplished via a single-wire control signal (piece of wire). Its the contacts on the device that will have 3 sets of contacts, that is, 3 (isolated from each other) screw terminals coming from the LINE side (hot), and 3 terminals for the LOAD thereby supplying power to a motor, fan, pump, heater, lights, etc.
