It is listed under the ComPacT range and built to EN/IEC 60947-1 and 60947-3, with a suitability-for-isolation mark (yes, per EN/IEC 60947-3). That means the open contacts provide a visible-break-equivalent isolation gap — the contact position indicator confirms the state without needing to open the panel. The utilisation categories tell you the load it can handle: AC-22 (160 A) covers resistive and mixed loads; AC-23 (100 A) covers motor and high-inrush loads. Both at 440 V and 690 V, with electrical endurance cycles listed per category. The 108 mm width and 137 mm height fit a standard panel cutout; the 27 mm connection pitch aligns with busbar systems. Terminals are EverLink lugs accepting 2.5…95 mm² rigid/stranded copper or 2.5…70 mm² flexible copper — no lug kit to order separately. IP40 front-of-panel protection and IK07 impact rating mean it handles the occasional tool bump in an enclosure but is not rated for washdown. ## Fault handling and coordination Rated short-time withstand current Icw is 1500 A for 1 s and 3 s, and 335 A for 20 s — enough for selective coordination with downstream breakers in a distribution board. The short-circuit making capacity Icm is 2.13 kA for the switch-disconnector alone, or 150 kA with an upstream protection circuit breaker. That 150 kA figure tells you this part is designed to be backed by a current-limiting breaker; it is not a standalone fault-breaker. Class II double-insulation construction means no protective earth connection required on the device itself.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric C124160LS ComPacT NSXm Switch Disconnecto","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric C124160LS ComPacT NSXm switch disconnector, 4 poles, 160 A AC-22 / 100 A AC-23, 690 V AC, IP40.
