Overview
The MGP0162L31 is a Schneider Powerpact 4 molded case circuit breaker rated 16 A at 40 °C on a 415 V three-phase supply, with a 25 kA Icu breaking capacity and a TM-D thermal-magnetic trip unit providing LI protection. It is a 2-pole panel-mounted unit with toggle control, conforming to BS EN 60947-2, and is suitable for isolation per that standard.
Lifecycle and sourcing
Schneider discontinued the MGP0162L31 on 2023-03-20; remaining units are sourced through surplus and broker channels rather than current distribution.
How it compares
The single-pole PP40201L3 carries a 20 A rating at 230 V and a contact position indicator, but the MGP0162L31 provides 2-pole switching at 415 V for line-to-line distribution where the PP40201L3 would require two units and a common-trip handle tie.
