Two Retrofit Solutions for Mounting Plate

1) Direct re-drilling: Mark and drill new holes on existing plate, abandon old holes

2) Add transition steel plate: Prefabricated adapter plate matching original LC1F hole pitch without cabinet plate modification (recommended for mass retrofits)

Schneider original replacement kit LA9GRT630 – dedicated transition bracket compatible with original LC1F mounting holes.

Main Circuit Busbar / Terminal Interface Comparison

Item	LC1F630	LC1G630KUEN	On-Site Wiring Difference
Inter-Pole Center Distance	90milímetros	70milímetros	Busbar span reduced by 20mm; original busbars require re-bending / cutting
Terminal Opening Width	60milímetros	48milímetros	Legacy 60mm-wide busbars cannot be inserted directly into new terminals
Max Allowable Busbar Size	60×5mm	50×20mm	New model supports thicker double-layer busbars with higher current carrying margin
Busbar Layers Per Terminal	Single-layer busbar	Double-layer busbar (standard 52×20mm busbar)	New model allows stacked upper and lower busbars
Main Circuit Tightening Torque	58 N·m	80 N·m	Higher torque requirement for new bolts; extended torque wrench needed
Cable Lug Compatibility	Single 185mm² cable lug	Single 185mm² ring lug	Interchangeable lug size but different front-rear installation positions

Busbar Retrofit Recommendations

Original 60mm-wide busbars matched to LC1F: Cut down to 48–50mm width
Change span from 90mm to 70mm and shorten inter-pole connecting segments
Prioritize original standard 52×20mm connection busbars LA9G630BUS (no bending required)
Control Circuit Wiring Differences

Parâmetro	LC1F630	LC1G630KUEN	Retrofit Notes
Control Terminal Type	Screw compression terminals	Front plug-in tool-free spring terminals	Control cables require no crimp lugs; plug-and-play
Control Cable Cross-Section	1~4mm簡 solid / stranded wire	0.2~2.5mm簡	Better compatibility for thin signal wires (PLC feedback)
Disposição dos Terminais	Side of unit	Lower front face of unit	No side bending required for easier maintenance access
Consumo de energia da bobina	1500VA pick-up, 80VA holding	Only 11W holding power	Greatly reduced cabinet temperature rise; no extra cooling fan needed
Coil Voltage Compatibility	Single fixed AC/DC rating	KU series universal 100~250V AC/DC	No control transformer replacement required, fits most field circuits

Matching Thermal Overload Relay Installation
LC1F630: LR9F7375, side external mounting with transition busbars required
LC1G630KUEN: LR9G630, direct bottom plug-in mounting, no transition busbars and smaller overall footprint
Retrofit Tip: Remove existing external thermal relay bracket, mount thermal relay directly under contactor to shorten wiring length
Retrofit Risks & Construction Precautions
Mounting Plate: Old and new hole positions are completely misaligned; do not force contactor fastening. Original transition bracket LA9GRT630 is recommended.
Main Busbars: Pole spacing reduced by 20mm. Forced assembly of legacy busbars causes terminal stress, overheating and ablation – busbars must be remanufactured.
Rear Clearance: New model is 11mm deeper. Verify minimum 30mm safety clearance if busbars or cable trunking are installed at cabinet rear.
Torque Standard: Main circuit torque must reach 80N·m; insufficient torque leads to overheating during long-term operation.
Circuitos de Controle: Shorten legacy screw-type control wires and insert directly into spring terminals without re-crimping lugs.
Maintenance Advantage: G-series contact cartridges are replaceable separately, while damaged F-series contactors require full unit replacement for lower long-term maintenance costs.
