Just looks like a 3-phase thermal overload type contactor from that pic.

They just go straight across usually, ie  11 - 12 etc. etc. looks like it drops out @ around 10A.

No coil connections ???

You using it on 3-phase ??

Just dangle a meter on it. 11-12:  21 -22:  31-32:

I would surmise you will get continuity on all 3.

If any pole overloads, then all 3 should drop out ..

Usual stuff ..  :zap:

I'm not sure its the usual NVR... :zap:

I bought one similar( not the same... althought it is meant for 3ph) and its defo not an NVR, whne I press the go button( without any ziggies on it) it latches which suggests its an on - off switch....Do be careful... :coffee:

I like talking to you guys... :clap:
