A normally-open disconnector auxiliary contact provides a separate indication or permissive circuit associated with the disconnector mechanism.

## What it represents

A normally-open disconnector auxiliary contact provides a separate indication or permissive circuit associated with the disconnector mechanism. Its state is read against the documented reference position.

## How to read it

- The contact tag must link to the disconnector rather than to an unrelated relay coil.
- The preview is an original explanation of this function. Match the actual drawing convention to its legend and the selected equipment documentation.

## Information to show or reference

- State reference disconnector position
- Identify auxiliary terminals
- Link the main-device tag

## Important distinction

Auxiliary contacts report or interlock operation; they do not carry the feeder load.

## Facts

- Drawing role: Switching path
- Representation scope: Functional concept; not an official standard graphic or a product footprint
- Public vendor block reference: HDS21AUX, VDS21AUX (Autodesk identifiers; not IEC symbol numbers)
- Identifier status: The short label is a functional lookup label, not an assigned IEC or IEEE symbol number. Any separately listed Autodesk code is a verified vendor block name.
