contactor single phase L3 used as a pilot light

[damunk]

Using a three phase contactor but in single phase so just live and neatural using L1 and L2 . Is it okay to hook up a pilot light on L3 terminal so when contactor is pulled in L3 becomes engaged hence pilot light turning on.

I dont want to know about aux contact because I will be using that for another coloured pilot light.

as long as rhe feed to L3in matches the voltage required by the pilot light.

Adjacent contacts are designed for at least 400 volts between them, and the maximum in your application will be 230 volts, so no problem whatsoever.
