  We consider the Pauli grading of the Lie algebra sl(3,C) and use a concept of
graded contractions to construct non-isomorphic Lie algebras of dimension 8,
while preserving the Pauli grading. We show how the symmetry group of a grading
simplifies the solution of contraction equations. We present the list of all
180 non-equivalent solutions of non-linear contraction system.
