Product details

The 100 kA Icu at 240 V AC is the maximum short-circuit current the breaker can interrupt once and remain functional; at 415 V that drops to 70 kA, at 440 V to 65 kA, and at 690 V to 10 kA. The TM-D trip unit provides L (thermal overload, adjustable) and I (magnetic short-circuit, fixed) protection; no earth-leakage module is built in, so that would be an external add-on if required.

Mounting and integration notes

Mounts to a backplate (not DIN rail) — flat on the back, either horizontal or vertical. The 35 mm connection pitch matches standard busbar systems. IP40 enclosure protection (no washdown rating) and IK07 impact resistance — suitable for enclosed panel installation, not for wet or outdoor locations without a separate enclosure. Electrical durability is 40,000 cycles at 440 V at half rated current, 20,000 cycles at full rated current; mechanical durability is 40,000 cycles. That is typical for a moulded-case breaker in distribution duty — not a switching device for frequent motor starts.

Frequently asked questions

What is C16H4TM100C's breaking capacity at 415 V?

70 kA Icu at 380/415 V AC 50/60 Hz, conforming to IEC 60947-2. That is the H-class rating on the NSX160H frame.

What is the closest alternative to C16H4TM100C in the same family?

Within the ComPacT NSX range, the closest peer is the same NSX160H frame with a different trip rating or trip unit type. For a 100 A 4P thermal-magnetic breaker, this order code is the direct active part; no pin-compatible alternative is listed as a formal cross-reference.

Where can I buy C16H4TM100C and get current pricing?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm price and lead time.

What compliance documentation does Schneider provide for C16H4TM100C?

The breaker is certified to EN/IEC 60947-2 and carries suitability for isolation per that standard. The evidence does not list RoHS, REACH, or UL documentation for this specific order code; check the manufacturer's declaration for those marks.
