Carrier P282-0311 Contactor 1 Pole 30 Amp 24 Volt

Product Description

The CARRIER P282-0311 is a single-pole definite-purpose contactor rated for 30 amps at 24 volts coil voltage, designed for switching compressor loads in residential and light commercial HVAC systems. The screw terminal design simplifies field wiring and supports secure, code-compliant connections. This contactor is rated for use with A2L low-global-warming-potential refrigerants, making it suitable for newer equipment platforms that require components certified for next-generation refrigerant compatibility. Licensed HVAC technicians install this part during seasonal maintenance, compressor replacement, or electrical troubleshooting calls.

This contactor fits into the compressor circuit of split-system air conditioners and heat pumps where a single-pole switching configuration is specified. The 24-volt coil is compatible with standard low-voltage thermostat control circuits common in residential HVAC equipment. The A2L rating addresses code and equipment requirements for systems charged with mildly flammable refrigerants, which are increasingly specified in modern residential equipment manufactured to meet current efficiency and environmental standards.

Key Features

• Single-pole configuration rated for 30 amps continuous load
• 24-volt coil voltage matches standard residential low-voltage control circuits
• Screw terminal connections for reliable, service-friendly field wiring
• A2L refrigerant compatible rating supports next-generation HVAC equipment
• OEM CARRIER part number for direct replacement assurance

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement contactor for single-pole 30-amp 24-volt applications in residential split-system air conditioners and heat pumps, including systems operating with A2L classified refrigerants.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed HVAC technician. Disconnect and lock out all electrical power to the unit before removing the existing contactor. Verify coil voltage and pole configuration match system requirements before installing. Follow NEC guidelines for low-voltage control wiring and line-voltage compressor circuit terminations.
