Right now we build our pump control circuits with a branch circuit breaker, into a contactor, into an overload relay, then to the motor. We currently take an aux contact reading from the contactor to show the pump is on, but if the circuit breaker trips, or indication is still showing the pump on, when it is not. I know I could use a relay in parallel with the motor wires but seems excessive to use a 480v relay just for the signal? Example: 480V, 3Ph, 60hz motor. Does a manual motor starter have a contact usually to do this?
Thanks for the help.
