A mounting lug 4 is fixed at the rear end of the AC contactor body 1, and a mounting hole is formed on the mounting lug 4. The AC contactor body 1 can be installed and fixed through the mounting lug 4 with the mounting hole to ensure stability. The wiring port 2 typically includes an inlet end and an outlet end. A fastening screw is screwed into the wiring port 2 to press the connected wire harness. It also includes a movable limiting member 5 and a positioning member 6. The movable limiting member 5 includes an adjusting member and a sleeve 52 that can vertically limit the end of the fastening screw cap. There are multiple sleeves 52, with one sleeve 52 corresponding to each wiring port 2. The adjusting member can make all sleeves 52 in the same row move synchronously. The positioning member 6 is set on the movable limiting member 5 and is used to limit the position of the sleeve 52 after the position is adjusted.
