The 10 kA breaking capacity at 380–415 V AC (IS/IEC 60947-2) tells you it can safely interrupt a fault current up to that level on a 400 V distribution bus. At 100–125 V DC the Icu rises to 15 kA, which covers DC auxiliary circuits in the same panel. Thermal-magnetic trip technology, Category A utilisation (no intentional short-time delay), and suitability for isolation per IS/IEC 60947-2. Pollution degree 3 means it handles the conductive dust and humidity you find in industrial panels, not just clean indoor switchgear. The biconnect feature on the bottom terminals lets you daisy-chain a second conductor without a separate terminal block, saving a row on the rail. IP20 finger-safe front, so it is fine inside a locked cabinet but not for washdown zones. Earth-leakage protection is handled by a separate block (not integrated), so if the spec calls for RCD protection, you need an adjacent vigi module on the rail. The ON/OFF toggle gives local visual indication — no auxiliary contact built in, but add one if you need remote status for a PLC input.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric A9N3P16DIN Acti9 xC60 MCB, 16 A D Curve,","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric A9N3P16DIN Acti9 xC60 miniature circuit breaker, 16 A rated current, D curve, 10 kA breaking capacity at 415 V AC.
