This is a contactor control circuit with Start (green push button, NO) and Stop (red push button, NC) switches. It allows starting and stopping a 3-phase motor (or load) safely using push buttons, without directly handling high voltage.

The 7805 is a voltage regulator which keeps the output to 5V. We can achieve the same with zener diode and a resistor which works as a voltage regulator.
