Dual-Pump Contactor Interlock Control
Drawing preview
The scenario

Two pumps are selected by maintained switches but must never run simultaneously; each contactor's NC auxiliary contact opens the opposite coil circuit when energized.

What is in this drawing

Read the decisions behind it.

01

Use relay_spdt symbols for contactor coils with integrated NC contacts for interlock

02

Maintained selector switches avoid the need for seal-in auxiliary contacts

03

Tie control supply neutral to ground for a single reference net

Reuse for any two-load interlock where only one contactor may be energized at a time, such as dual pumps, fans, or compressors.
