Does it matter what side you connect your supply and load on a 4 pole contactor?? Basically the only place I could fit the contactor was underneath the DB do my supply had to come in the bottom, and there wasn’t a lot of room within the enclosure for 16mm tails so I connected them into the bottom and the load at the top. First time I’ve ever had to fit a contactor, I assumed it wouldn’t matter but wondered if anyone else here knows more on them
