8903LXO80V02 - Square D Lighting Contactor

8903LXO80V02 - Square D Lighting Contactor

If you’re managing large lighting loads and want something that just works without constant attention, the Schneider Electric 8903LXO80V02 lighting contactor is a solid choice. This is a mechanically held, 8-pole contactor built for lighting control applications where reliability and efficiency matter. Because it’s mechanically latched, it only uses power when switching—so you’re not wasting energy keeping it engaged all day. That’s a practical advantage in facilities where lighting runs for long hours.

This model handles up to 30 amps for fluorescent lighting and 20 amps for tungsten loads, making it a good fit for commercial spaces, warehouses, or anywhere with multiple lighting circuits. It comes with eight normally open contacts, and if your setup changes, those contacts can be converted in the field. You also get two coils (110/120V AC)—one to latch and one to unlatch—keeping control simple and predictable. The open-style design gives you flexibility on how and where you install it, and if something ever needs servicing, the coils and contacts can be replaced without much hassle.
