While the silver-alloy contacts can handle low-voltage DC signals (such as 24V DC logic feedback), switching high-voltage DC loads will cause severe electrical arcing across the open-style contacts. This arcing degrades the contact faces rapidly because DC voltages do not possess a natural zero-crossing point to extinguish the spark.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does the LED pilot light react if a technician reverses the input polarity?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis specific variant operates on a 240V AC alternating current coil at 50\/60 Hz.
