Guys,

Can you help me find technical solution in this question: Is auxiliary relays and magnetic contactors has added voltage contribution in parallel connection?

Thank you

n3w2000:

If you have a number of different or same type devices nominally rated to operate from a voltage source, for example 120 V, then if you parallel any number, whether the same device type or different, this parallel connection would still be powered from the same voltage source, again for example 120 V. The amount of total current required will depend upon what devices are connected in parallel,

Since your native language is not English I hope you can understand what I said.

What you can not do is take two 120 V voltage devices, one that draws 1 A and the other 2 A, then connect them in series and power them from 240 V.

Guys,

No. Only in series connection auxiliary relays and magnetic contactors have added voltage contribution through their holding coils only.
