The Schneider IC65N 4P C16A is a Miniature Circuit Breaker (MCB) designed for overcurrent protection in 4-pole electrical circuits. It is part of the IC65N series from Schneider Electric, which provides reliable protection for residential, commercial, and industrial applications.
Parameters:
Rated Current (In): 16A
Poles: 4P (Four-pole design for 3-phase circuits with neutral protection)
Rated Voltage (Un): 400V AC (standard for 3-phase systems)
Rated Frequency: 50/60Hz
Breaking Capacity (Icu): 10kA (maximum fault current the MCB can safely interrupt)
Tripping Curve: C-curve (suitable for circuits with moderate inrush currents, like lighting or motors)
Overload Protection: Yes, the MCB provides thermal overload protection, which trips when the current exceeds the rated current for an extended period.
Short Circuit Protection: Yes, it provides magnetic short-circuit protection, which trips the breaker instantly in the event of a short circuit.
Insulation Resistance: ≥ 100MΩ (at 500V DC)
Ambient Temperature Range: -25°C to +60°C (suitable for a variety of operating environments)
Mechanical Durability: 20,000 operations
Electrical Durability: 4,000 operations (at rated current and short-circuit conditions)
