Overview
The MGP0162L23 is a 2-pole Powerpact 4 MCCB with a TM-D thermal-magnetic trip unit rated 16 A at 40 °C, switching a 415 V line-to-line load and breaking 25 kA at the terminals. It is panel-mounted with a toggle actuator, carries a Category A utilization rating, and is suitable for isolation per BS EN 60947-2.
Lifecycle and sourcing
Schneider discontinued the MGP0162L23 on 2023-03-20; remaining units are sourced through surplus and broker channels. An RFQ confirms current availability and lead time for this exact build.
How it compares
The single-pole PP40201L2 carries a 20 A trip at 230 V and includes a contact position indicator; the MGP0162L23 uses 2 poles for 415 V line-to-line switching at 16 A. Pick the PP40201L2 when the BOM calls for a 1-pole 20 A device on a 230 V line; the MGP0162L23 fits 2-pole 16 A 415 V distribution.
