Product details

The C25H4TM160 is a Schneider Electric ComPacT NSX250H moulded-case circuit breaker, 4-pole, fitted with a TM-D thermal-magnetic trip unit rated 160 A at 40 °C. It's the distribution-grade workhorse for a panel that needs an isolation-capable, high-breaking-capacity MCCB in a compact footprint — 140 mm wide, 161 mm tall, 86 mm deep, backplate-mounted, front-connected top and bottom.

This breaker carries a 100 kA Icu at 240 V AC, 70 kA at 415 V, and 65 kA at 480 V (UL 60947-4-1). At 415 V, the 70 kA figure is the one most European panel builders will coordinate against; the 65 kA at 480 V covers North American 480Y/277 V services. The 10 kA at 690 V is a reminder that this is a 600 V max device — don't push it above that.

The TM-D trip unit provides thermal overload protection (L) and magnetic short-circuit protection (I). The thermal element tracks the 160 A rating at 40 °C; the magnetic pickup is fixed and non-adjustable on this thermal-magnetic variant. Neutral protection is set to 1 x Ir (4D), meaning the 4-pole breaker protects the neutral at the same level as the phases — standard for a fully rated 4P distribution breaker.

Front-connected top and bottom makes for clean busbar runs and accessible lug torque checks during commissioning. IP40 enclosure, IK07 impact rating: fine for a dry indoor switchboard, not for washdown areas.

Frequently asked questions

What compliance documentation does this brand provide for C25H4TM160?

The C25H4TM160 is certified to EN/IEC 60947-2 and UL 60947-4-1. It carries suitability for isolation per EN/IEC 60947-2. Standard documentation includes the manufacturer's declaration of conformity; specific RoHS/REACH declarations are available on request from the supplier.

Who supplies C25H4TM160 and how is it quoted?

The C25H4TM160 is supplied through independent industrial-automation distribution. It is quoted to order against an RFQ; availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What is the closest pin-compatible alternative to C25H4TM160?

Within the ComPacT NSX family, the NSX250H frame is the only one that carries a 160 A TM-D trip unit in a 4-pole configuration. There is no direct pin-compatible alternative at this exact rating; a different frame size or trip rating would change the mounting footprint or protection curve.
