Perhaps from an engineering standpoint, they put in a contactor close to the total amperage draw on that part of the circuit. An oversized contactor is just overkill, and physical size may be prohibitive, but if that's what you want or desire like I said before - go for it!. Because of a larger sized contactor, the inrush to the coil may be larger also. Make sure your control circuit can handle the additional current, or you may be blowing control fuses.
