The C60H3P16AD is a 3-pole miniature circuit breaker from the Multi9 C60H range, rated 16 A at 40 °C with a D trip curve. The D curve means the magnetic trip operates at 10 to 14 times the rated current (10...14 x In) — designed for loads with high inrush, like motor starters, transformers, or discharge lighting, where a B or C curve would nuisance-trip on startup. The 16 A rating at 40 °C is the continuous current it carries without tripping in a 40 °C ambient; derate for higher panel temperatures per the thermal curve. Breaking capacity is specified per IEC 60947-2: 30 kA Icu at 230...240 V AC, 15 kA at 400...415 V AC, and 10 kA at 440 V AC. Mounts on a 35 mm symmetrical DIN rail, occupies 6 x 9 mm pitches (54 mm wide). The tunnel terminals accept up to 25 mm² rigid or 16 mm² flexible copper, with a 2 N·m tightening torque and 14 mm strip length.
Deployment context
The 54 mm width (6 modules) fits standard enclosure cutouts. Rated for operation from -25 to 60 °C ambient, storage from -40 to 70 °C, and 95 % relative humidity at 55 °C with tropicalisation class 2 per IEC 60068-1 — suitable for unconditioned electrical rooms or outdoor-rated enclosures in humid climates.
