Product details

Integrator's spec recap

The C10B3TM016C is a Schneider Electric ComPacT NSX100B thermal-magnetic circuit breaker, 3-pole, rated 16 A at 50 °C with a TM-D trip unit providing L (overload) and I (short-circuit) protection per EN/IEC 60947-2. Breaking capacity hits 40 kA Icu at 240 V AC and 25 kA Icu at 415 V AC — the 415 V figure is the one that governs most European distribution panels. The 16 A rating at 50 °C means no derating is needed in a typical 40 °C enclosure; above that, the thermal curve applies.

Mounts on a backplate (not DIN rail) — horizontal or vertical, flat against the panel. Front connections on both line and load sides simplify busbar and cable routing.
