If the charging does not need to be particularly rapid, the control
circuit could detect a constant current of 4 amps or more and go into
'blip' mode, which would guard against the contactor failing with a
contact closed.  If that is not possible, running a length of solder
across all three elements wouldn't be difficult to arrange as a thermal
cut-out.
[Spelling errors corrected]
 If you aren't happy with solder, try Woods metal or some other
low-melting-point alloy.  In the 1950s, Philips protected their mains
transformers with a neat little arrangment of leaf springs , sprung
apart but held together with a stirrup made in two parts joined with
some sort of LMP alloy.  That worked at a much lower temperature than
you need for this job.
 The chances of a failure of the sort you are worried about are so small
that it is not worth using an elaborate thermal switch (with its own
failure mechanism), a simple melting alloy wire is foolproof.
The British Standard fool isn't as ingenious as ones you run into in real life.
