Electrical contactor with movable arm

1. An electrical contactor comprising:

a first terminal having a fixed member with at least one fixed electrical contact;

a second terminal;

at least one movable electrical contact in electrical communication with the second terminal;

a dual-coil actuator having a first drive coil drivable to open and close the movable and fixed electrical contacts, and a second non-drive coil feedback connected to induce a reverse flux to temper and stabilize a net flux, thereby enabling control of a delay time of the opening and closing electrical contacts so as to be at or adjacent to a zero-crossing of an associated AC load current waveform;

a busbar in electrical communication with the second terminal and to which an electrically-conductive movable arm is mounted at or adjacent to a distal end thereof, the at least one movable electrical contact being on the movable arm,

wherein a further electrically-conductive movable arm is mounted to the busbar, a further said movable electrical contact being on the further movable arm, and

wherein the first said movable arm is preformed and preloaded to be biased towards the said at least one fixed electrical contact in the absence of a separating force, and the said further movable arm is preformed and preloaded to be biased away from the said at least one fixed electrical contact in the absence of a closing force.
