While helping my son add an additional pump motor to a control panel, we noted that the designation of NO and NC on an older AllenBradley thermal overload relay was opposite that of the newer version from Schneider. Checking the current AB thermal overload relays, the NO and NC labeling is the same as the Schneider unit. In the older unit, the labeling corresponded to the tripped state while in the newer units, it corresponds to the untripped state. When did the convention change and what is the reference standard? Thanks !
