Overview
The C16H47E160 is a Schneider ComPacT NSX molded case circuit breaker rated 160 A at 40 °C with a 100 kA breaking capacity at 440 V AC, built on a 4-pole frame. It carries the MicroLogic 7.2 E electronic trip unit combining overload (L), short-time (S), instantaneous (I), and earth-leakage (R) protection, plus an integrated energy meter and LCD display for real-time power quality data.
How it compares
Compared to the 3-pole C16H3 basic frame, the C16H47E160 adds a fourth pole and raises the breaking capacity from 10 kA to 100 kA, making it the correct choice when the BOM specifies 4-pole distribution with high fault current capability.
