Schneider Electric GV2P04 General Purpose Contactor

Schneider Electric's GV2P04 is a TeSys GV2P three-pole manual motor starter and protector that combines thermal-magnetic overload protection with a rotary operator for quick manual control of small 3‑phase motors. It uses screw-clamp terminals for wiring and covers a nominal operating current range of 0.40 to 0.63 A, with a short-circuit rating up to 50 kA, making it suitable for protecting and switching motors in pumps, conveyors, and other compact equipment. The GV2P04 is designed to be used in conjunction with TeSys contactors in motor-starter configurations; for example, GV2P04KD09G7 pairs this motor protector with LC1D09G7 to form a complete starter assembly. The device is a 3-pole unit with a rotary handle that allows manual disconnection without energizing the coil, providing an immediate control option during setup or fault conditions. This combination of overload protection and manual control within a compact package helps simplify panel layouts while delivering reliable motor protection in industrial and mechanical applications.
