OEM Payne 2-Pole Contactor 24V Coil for Model PA13NR04800GADAA
This is the factory OEM replacement contactor (part number HN51KC024) for the Payne PA13NR04800GADAA split-system air conditioner. The contactor is a high-voltage relay that receives a 24V signal from the thermostat and closes to deliver 240V power to the compressor and condenser fan motor. When the contactor fails — due to pitted or burned contacts, a worn coil, or contacts stuck open or closed — the system will either fail to start entirely, run continuously without shutting off, or trip the breaker repeatedly.

-
OEM vs Generic: This OEM contactor uses factory-spec contact material and coil windings. Generic contactors often use lower-grade contact alloys that pit and burn faster under the repeated high-current switching demands of a residential condenser — shortening service life significantly in high-cycle climates.

Install difficulty: 3/5 — Always shut off power at both the disconnect box and the breaker before beginning. Tools needed: flathead and Phillips screwdrivers, needle-nose pliers, a multimeter to verify de-energization, and wire labels or a phone camera to document terminal connections before removal. Exercise extreme caution — capacitor terminals nearby may still hold a lethal charge even with power off.
