The C25V32D160 is a Schneider Electric ComPacT NSX circuit breaker, part of the ComPacT range, rated 160 A at 40 °C with a MicroLogic 2.2 electronic trip unit. The 3-pole (3P) configuration suits three-phase distribution panels, and the electronic trip unit provides L (long-time overload), So (short-time short-circuit with fixed delay), and I (instantaneous short-circuit) protection curves, giving selectivity coordination flexibility.
Mounts on a backplate (not DIN rail) — horizontal or vertical orientation, flat on the back. The 105 mm width and 161 mm height fit standard ComPacT NSX cutouts; depth is 86 mm. Front connections both upside and downside simplify busbar or cable routing. The toggle control type provides local manual operation. Five accessory slots allow for auxiliary contacts, shunt trips, or communication modules without removing the breaker from the panel.
Environmental and durability
IP40 enclosure keeps out tools and wires larger than 1 mm; IK07 impact resistance covers accidental hammer strikes. Electrical durability: 20,000 cycles at 440 V In/2, 10,000 at 440 V In, 5,000 at 690 V In.
