Its breaking capacity reaches 85 kA Icu at 240 V AC and 36 kA Icu at 415 V AC, certified to EN/IEC 60947-2. The electronic trip provides L (long-time overload), So (short-time short-circuit with fixed delay), and I (instantaneous short-circuit) protection curves, making it suitable for distribution and feeder protection in commercial and industrial panels. At 480 V AC the Icu is 35 kA; at 600 V AC it drops to 10 kA. For selectivity coordination downstream, the MicroLogic 2.2's short-time delay (So) allows the breaker to ride through transient faults while letting downstream devices clear, provided their let-through energy stays below 36 kA at 415 V. Mounts on a backplate in horizontal or vertical orientation, flat on the back. The IP40 enclosure rating (IK07 impact) suits clean indoor panel environments; the toggle handle provides local manual control. Front-connect busbars or cable lugs on both upside and downside connections simplify panel wiring. The neutral is on the left. Five accessory slots are available for auxiliary contacts, shunt trips, or under-voltage releases.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric C16F42D100 ComPacT NSX160F, 100A, 4P, 85k","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric C16F42D100 ComPacT NSX160F circuit breaker, 100A at 40°C, 4P, 85kA Icu at 240V AC.
