Product details

MCCB for distribution panels — 16 A, 50 kA at 415 V

The C10N4TM016C is a 4-pole ComPacT NSX100N MCCB from Schneider Electric's ComPacT range, fitted with a TM-D thermal-magnetic trip unit rated 16 A at 50 °C. It breaks 50 kA Icu at 415 V AC (50/60 Hz) per IEC 60947-2, which covers the fault-current capability needed for most commercial and light-industrial distribution boards. The TM-D trip provides L (thermal overload) and I (magnetic short-circuit) protection in a single block — no separate trip unit to source.

At 220/240 V that figure rises to 90 kA Icu; at 690 V it drops to 10 kA Icu.

Mounts flat on a backplate — no DIN-rail adapter. The 140 mm width, 161 mm height, and 86 mm depth fit standard distribution panel cutouts for 4-pole MCCBs. IP40 enclosure protection means it's suited for indoor panels; IK07 impact resistance handles incidental tool contact during commissioning.

Rated for 50,000 mechanical operations and 30,000 electrical cycles at rated current (440 V, In). At half-rated current that doubles to 50,000 electrical cycles. For a distribution breaker seeing infrequent switching (a few operations per month), this translates to decades of service life. The TM-D trip unit is field-replaceable if the thermal or magnetic calibration drifts.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of C10N4TM016C at 415 V?

50 kA Icu at 380/415 V AC per IEC 60947-2. That is the N breaking capacity code — sufficient for most 400 V distribution boards up to about 1.5 MVA transformer rating.

Where can I buy C10N4TM016C?

Sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution channels. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm price and lead time.

What standards does C10N4TM016C comply with?

Designed and tested to EN/IEC 60947-2 for low-voltage switchgear and controlgear. Suitable for isolation per that standard. Pollution degree 3 per IEC 60664-1, overvoltage category III.

What is the closest alternative to C10N4TM016C in the same family?

Within the ComPacT NSX100N frame, the same 4-pole MCCB with a higher trip rating (e.g., 25 A or 32 A) uses the same physical footprint and breaking capacity. If you need a different trip curve, the TM-D is thermal-magnetic; the Micrologic electronic trip units (2.0, 5.0, 6.0) fit the same NSX100N frame but require a different order code.
