[QUOTE="Sidewinder, post: 367604, member: 9512"] You could end up overloading the e-stop button contacts, depending on the current your motor is drawing as you are feeding motor current through the e-stop contact, that is not the way it should be done and is not good for the button, nor is it good and safe design. The e-stop should only operate on the nvr switch, it should not carry & interrupt motor current directly to be honest. If you overload it the contacts can fail in the closed position and when you need the e-stop it won't work. [/QUOTE]
