CWB95 (3-pole 95 A)
Top of the compact CWB range — covers 25–60 HP compressors and wye-delta line/delta duties. Beyond this frame WEG steps to the CWB125+ and CWBS safety-rated variants for safety-circuit duty.

OL = open coil · near zero = shorted turns · coil-to-frame must read >1 MΩ.

Pick the coil voltage, enter your meter reading across A1–A2 (coil disconnected), and compare it to the expected ballpark.
OL = open coil. 0–2 Ω = shorted turns (often from a cooked transformer). Ballpark only (±15%+); electronic wide-range coils (e.g. ABB AF) read misleading values — test those at rated voltage instead. Always measure coil-to-frame too: must be >1 MΩ.

- In wye-delta sets, size the delta contactor at 0.58 × motor FLA and the wye contactor at 0.33 × — a like-for-like 95 A on all three is oversized but safe.
- For safety-circuit (mirror-contact) applications, spec the CWBS variant — the standard CWB aux contacts are not mechanically linked per IEC 60947-4-1 Annex F.
- Coil inrush ≈ 350 VA will sag a marginal control transformer — size the transformer for inrush, not sealed VA.
