The Schneider Electric LC1D38Q7 is a TeSys Deca 3-pole contactor rated 38 A in AC-3 at up to 440 V, for motors of 18.5 kW at 380/400 V, with a 380 V AC 50/60 Hz coil. It carries 1 NO + 1 NC auxiliary contacts as standard. At 220/230 V the AC-3 motor rating is 9 kW.
In a typical motor starter the LC1D is combined with a TeSys LRD thermal overload relay mounted directly underneath, or with a GV2 motor circuit breaker for fuseless protection.
See our Schneider Electric range for TeSys overload relays and GV2 breakers.

Compatibility and replacement
Pairs with the TeSys LRD thermal overload relay (direct mounting) and the GV2 motor circuit breaker. Add-on blocks such as LADN11 (1NO+1NC) or LADN22 (2NO+2NC) fit on the front. The coil code (P7 = 230 V AC, M7 = 220 V AC, F7 = 110 V AC, Q7 = 380 V AC, BD = 24 V DC) must match your control voltage.
Frequently asked questions
How long does it last mechanically?
Schneider gives a mechanical durability of 15 Mcycles.
Can I add auxiliary contacts?
Yes, front-mounted LADN blocks and side-mounted LAD8 blocks can be added.
Can it switch heaters or resistive loads?
Yes. For AC-1 (resistive) loads Schneider rates it at 50 A.
Which overload relay fits?
TeSys LRD relays mount directly under the contactor; choose the setting range that covers the motor rated current.
