OEM Carrier Contactor C4850C50ZG055500 for Model C4850C50ZG055500

This genuine OEM Carrier contactor (C4850C50ZG055500) is the power-switching relay that feeds line voltage to your air conditioner's compressor and outdoor fan motor on every cooling call. When the coil energizes, the contacts close and the condensing unit comes to life. Worn contacts are one of the most common AC failures, producing symptoms like loud humming, intermittent operation, hard starts, or a system that stays off entirely. Replacing the contactor with this OEM part restores reliable, full-voltage switching and helps prevent compressor damage caused by arcing and voltage drop. Made to Carrier's original specifications, it is an exact-fit match for model C4850C50ZG055500, removing the uncertainty of generic substitutes. Installation difficulty is moderate and DIY-accessible: turn off power at the breaker and outdoor disconnect, photograph the wiring for reference, and transfer each lead to the matching terminal one at a time. Most jobs finish in 20 to 30 minutes with basic hand tools. Confirm the circuit is de-energized with a voltage tester before beginning. In stock and ships same-day on orders placed before 3PM CST.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Contactor fit my Carrier Model C4850C50ZG055500?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM contactor for the Carrier Model C4850C50ZG055500. It is a direct drop-in replacement that fits without modification. Always verify the model number on your equipment nameplate before ordering.
How do I replace the contactor on my Carrier Model C4850C50ZG055500?
Difficulty: Medium (30–45 min)
Step 1: Turn off breaker. Step 2: Open condensing unit panel. Step 3: Photograph ALL wiring on the contactor. Step 4: Label each wire with tape. Step 5: Disconnect wires and remove old contactor. Step 6: Mount new contactor, reconnect wires matching your photo. Step 7: Restore power and test.
My AC clicks but the compressor won’t turn on. What’s wrong?
Clicking from the outdoor unit without the compressor starting = worn contactor. The contactor sends power to the compressor. When its contacts are pitted, it clicks but can’t make solid contact. Look for: visible pitting/burn marks on the contactor face, intermittent operation, or buzzing.
Is this contactor compatible with Bryant or Payne too?
Many Carrier parts are cross-compatible with Bryant and Payne since all three brands are manufactured by Carrier Global Corporation. The same physical part is often used across brand labels with different model numbers. To verify: check your Bryant or Payne equipment service manual for cross-compatible part numbers, or email info@nationalhvacparts.com with your model number.
Should I use OEM or aftermarket for my Carrier contactor?
OEM recommended for reliability and warranty compatibility. OEM parts match exact factory specifications for proper fit, performance, and safety. While aftermarket alternatives cost less upfront, the risk of improper fit and reduced lifespan usually makes OEM the better value long-term.
How fast does National HVAC Parts ship?
