ABB CR460 Series 2-Pole Lighting Contactor Power Block

The ABB CR460 Series 2-Pole Power Block is a modular power pole designed for lighting contactor assemblies built on ABB CR460 Series basic contactors. Each CR460 basic contactor accepts up to 6 single- or double-pole power poles, letting panel builders configure the exact pole arrangement a lighting circuit requires. This 2-pole power block is packaged individually and overpacked in multiples of 5, making it easy to stock and specify for lighting contactor builds and panel maintenance.

Key Features

  • CR460 Series Compatibility: Engineered to mount directly on ABB CR460 Series basic contactors, which accept up to 6 single- or double-pole power poles.
  • Flexible NO/NC Pole Configuration: Combine power poles to form up to 12 NO poles using six double-poles in the NO positions (1-6), or 8 NC poles using four double-poles in positions 1-4 plus 4 NO poles using two double-poles in positions 5-6.
  • 2-Pole Design: This power block provides 2-pole switching for building out lighting contactor pole counts to match circuit requirements.
  • Individually Packaged: Each power block ships packaged individually and is overpacked in multiples of 5 for convenient bulk ordering.
  • Modular Contactor Building Block: Functions as an add-on power pole for expanding ABB CR460 basic contactors into complete lighting contactor assemblies.

Why ABB?

ABB CR460 Series power poles are built to expand and standardize lighting contactor assemblies, letting electrical professionals configure precise NO/NC pole counts from a single basic contactor platform. This modular approach supports consistent, code-compliant contactor builds across commercial and industrial lighting control panels. Choosing genuine ABB CR460 Series components helps ensure proper fit and reliable long-term performance in contactor-based lighting control systems.

ABB CR460XP32 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the ABB CR460XP32 power block actually do, and does it work on its own?
The CR460XP32 is a 2-pole power pole (power block) that mounts onto an ABB CR460 Series basic contactor. It is not a standalone contactor. You buy the CR460 basic contactor as the platform, then add power poles like this one to build the pole count the lighting circuit needs. On its own it will not switch anything.
2) How many power poles can I add to one ABB CR460 basic contactor?
Each CR460 basic contactor takes up to 6 single- or double-pole power poles, in positions 1 through 6. With the CR460XP32 being a double pole, six of them fill all six positions.
3) Can a CR460 contactor be built with both normally closed and normally open poles?
Yes. A mixed build is 8 NC poles from four double-poles in positions 1 through 4, plus 4 NO poles from two double-poles in positions 5 and 6. The CR460XP32 is the double-pole block used to make up those counts, so the NO or NC arrangement comes from which positions you populate.
4) I need to add two more poles to an existing lighting contactor in a panel. Is this the right part?
If the existing contactor is an ABB CR460 Series basic contactor and it has an open pole position, then yes, the CR460XP32 adds 2 poles. Pole expansion and contactor retrofits are exactly what these blocks are for. If the contactor is a different ABB series or another manufacturer, this block will not mount.
5) Is the ABB CR460XP32 sold one at a time or in a box?
Each power block is packaged individually, and they are overpacked in multiples of 5. So you can specify a single block for a repair or take full overpacks when you are building panels in quantity.
6) What is the ABB part number for the CR460 2-pole power block?
The manufacturer part number is CR460XP32, an ABB CR460 Series 2-pole power block. That is the number to quote when matching poles across a panel build so every contactor assembly in the job uses the same block.
7) Should I use single-pole or double-pole power blocks on a CR460 build?
It comes down to the pole count you need and how many of the six positions you want to consume. A double-pole block like the CR460XP32 gives two poles per position, so six of them max the contactor at 12 poles. Single-pole blocks give you finer granularity when the circuit needs an odd pole count, at the cost of using a whole position for one pole. The CR460 basic contactor accepts either type in any of its six positions.
8) Where are ABB CR460 power blocks typically used?
Commercial and industrial lighting control panels, panelboard and switchgear contactor builds, and contactor retrofits where poles are being added. Institutional and MRO buyers also stock them for renovation and new construction panel work, since standardizing on one block keeps spare parts simple across a facility.
