Expert Review
The iC60N 1P C16 earns trust through simple design and steady performance. Schneider Electric built the Acti9 iC60 line for daily use in busy panels. The C-curve handles small surges without nuisance trips. The 6 kA rating covers many commercial and light industrial needs. The 1-pole width keeps boards tidy. It is not a specialty device. It is a reliable workhorse for standard circuits.
Manager’s Insight
Buy this iC60N 1P C16 when you need a proven 16 A breaker from a top brand. Stock it for panel builds, service calls, and small machine circuits. The Acti9 iC60 range is active, so parts stay easy to source. The 12 month warranty and fast courier options cut project risk. For high-volume buyers, keep this model on the shelf as a fast-moving item.
Best Applications
- Lighting circuits in offices and shops
- Socket outlets in homes and hotels
- Small motors and pumps
- Control panels and machine builders
- Commercial distribution boards
- DC control circuits up to 125 V
- Retrofit and replacement work
FAQ
What does C16 mean?
It means a 16 A breaker with a C curve. The C curve allows short inrush current.
Can I use it for a motor?
Yes, for small motors with moderate starting current. Check the full load current first.
Is it one pole or two?
This model is 1P. It uses one pole and one module width.
What is the breaking capacity?
It is 6 kA at 230/400 V AC. That fits many panel and final circuit duties.
Does it work on DC?
Yes, it is rated for 125 V DC. Follow the correct wiring rules for DC.
How many cycles can it handle?
It handles 20,000 mechanical cycles and 10,000 electrical cycles.
What is the operating temperature?
It works from -35 to 70 degrees C.
How fast do you ship?
We dispatch in 12 to 24 hours. We use FedEx, UPS, and DHL.
Is there a warranty?
Yes, we provide a 12 month warranty.
How do I contact you?
Email sales@powergearx.com or message +86 18030005825 on WhatsApp.
What should I check before buying?
Check poles, current, curve, voltage, and breaking capacity. Match them to your circuit.
Can I mix brands in one panel?
It is best to match brands and series. This keeps trip behavior and fit consistent.
What if the breaker trips often?
Find the cause first. Check load, wiring, and fault level. Then replace only if needed.
Is this a genuine Schneider Electric product?
Yes. We source genuine Schneider Electric products.
Do you offer bulk pricing?
Yes. Contact us with your target quantity and delivery country.
Buying Guide
- Match the rated current to the cable and load.
- Pick C curve for mixed loads with small surges.
- Check the fault level against the 6 kA rating.
- Choose 1P for single-phase final circuits.
- Confirm panel space and DIN rail type.
- Order spare units for service work.
