Product details

What this 4-pole ComPacT NSXm covers

The C11E4TM016L is a 4-pole ComPacT NSXm circuit breaker with a 16 A thermal-magnetic TM-D trip unit, rated for distribution duty. The thermal-magnetic trip gives you both overload protection (thermal bimetal) and short-circuit protection (magnetic coil) in one unit, with no external trip module needed.

The 108 mm width × 137 mm height × 80 mm depth footprint (12 x 9 mm pitches) fits standard ComPacT NSXm cutouts. Terminals accept Everlink lugs: 2.5…95 mm² rigid or stranded aluminium/copper, or 2.5…70 mm² flexible copper — covers most panel feeder and branch sizes. IP40 front-face protection handles dry indoor panels; IK07 impact rating resists accidental tool drops during commissioning.

Rated for 20,000 mechanical cycles and 20,000 electrical cycles at 440 V In/2, 10,000 cycles at 440 V In, 10,000 cycles at 690 V In/2, and 5,000 cycles at 690 V In. That's enough for daily switching in a distribution panel over years of service. The TM-D trip unit is field-replaceable if needed, but the breaker is designed as a sealed unit — swap the whole breaker on failure.

Frequently asked questions

What standards does the C11E4TM016L comply with?

It complies with EN/IEC 60947-2 for low-voltage switchgear and controlgear. It is suitable for isolation per that standard. IP40 per IEC 60529 and IK07 per IEC 62262.

What is the breaking capacity of the C11E4TM016L?

Performance level E: 16 kA at 415 V AC. That's the maximum fault current it can safely interrupt at that voltage.

Where can I buy the C11E4TM016L and how is it quoted?

This part is sourced to order through independent distribution channels. Submit an RFQ for current availability and pricing — confirmed at quote time, not listed here.

What is the closest alternative to the C11E4TM016L in the same family?

Within the ComPacT NSXm range, the closest peer would be a 3-pole version (3P) of the same 16 A TM-D trip unit and 16 kA rating, if your application doesn't require neutral switching. The 4-pole C11E4TM016L is the one to use when you need to switch all three phases plus neutral.
