Product details

The MGP1603XFO is a PowerPacT 4 basic frame from Schneider Electric — a 160 A, 3-pole (3P) panel-mounted breaker frame rated 50 kA Icu and 50 kA Ics at 415 V AC, 50/60 Hz. The frame is built for a 250 A or 400/630 A panelboard destination and is isolation-suitable per BS EN 60947-2.

Rated 160 A continuous, this frame is sized for a 160 A distribution feeder or a large panelboard main. IP40 front face keeps tools and fingers out; IK07 impact resistance handles incidental knocks during panel work. The 8 kV impulse withstand voltage (Uimp) supports coordination with upstream surge arrestors. Class II double insulation means no earth connection required on the frame itself.

Panel-mounted via backplate, with horizontal or vertical orientation allowed. Occupies 3 modules of 35 mm width (105 mm total). Toggle control with a contact position indicator gives local on/off and visual confirmation of contact state. The frame is a basic frame — it ships without a trip unit, so a separate thermal-magnetic or electronic trip unit must be ordered and installed to complete the breaker.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get current pricing and availability for MGP1603XFO?

The MGP1603XFO is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm price and lead time.

What is the closest alternative to MGP1603XFO in this component family?

No official successor order code is listed. A current-production PowerPacT 4 frame with matching 160 A, 3-pole, 50 kA rating would be the closest parametric match, but the frame variant and trip unit compatibility must be verified against the BOM.

What compliance documentation does this brand provide for MGP1603XFO?

The MGP1603XFO is certified to BS EN 60947-2 and carries IP40, IK07, and pollution degree 3 per EN/IEC 60664-1. It is suitable for isolation per BS EN 60947-2. Documentation such as the original datasheet and declaration of conformity is available upon request.
