ABB UA30-30-10 is a three-pole capacitor-switching contactor with a 110 V AC 50 Hz or 110–120 V AC 60 Hz coil, three normally open main contacts and one normally open auxiliary contact.
Why Choose the ABB UA30-30-10 Capacitor Contactor?
The ABB UA30-30-10, product code 1SBL281022R8410, is a robust three-pole capacitor-switching contactor designed for controlling capacitor banks in industrial power-factor correction systems. Its application-specific construction supports dependable switching of capacitive loads where substantial transient currents can occur during energisation.
Part of the established ABB UA contactor series, the UA30-30-10 combines three normally open main contacts with one built-in normally open auxiliary contact. Its compact block design supports installation in capacitor-control panels and can be extended with compatible ABB auxiliary contact blocks and accessories.
This exact variant features a control coil rated at 110 V AC at 50 Hz and 110–120 V AC at 60 Hz. With an operational voltage of up to 690 V AC, it is suitable for industrial and commercial reactive-power compensation equipment.

Reliable Capacitor-Bank Switching
Capacitor contactors switch capacitive loads used for reactive-power compensation and power-factor correction. These installations can produce substantial transient currents when capacitor stages are energised, making correct contactor selection essential for reliable system operation.
The ABB UA series provides application-specific switching for capacitor installations. Its built-in auxiliary contact can support signalling or control-system interlocking, while the block construction enables straightforward integration into automatic power-factor correction panels.
Typical Applications
Automatic power-factor correction panels.
Three-phase capacitor banks.
Reactive-power compensation systems.
Industrial electrical distribution panels.
Commercial building power-factor correction.
Manufacturing and process-plant electrical systems.
