SN201L-C16 1P+N 16A Type C Circuit Breaker 4.5kA

The ABB SN201L-C16 1P+N 16A circuit breaker is a protection device designed for electrical circuits, providing effective protection against overloads and short circuits. This high-quality automatic switch is designed for residential and commercial applications, making it ideal for protecting equipment and systems in electrical installations up to 230V in both alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC).

With a rated current of 16 amperes and a type C tripping curve, this circuit breaker is optimised to protect circuits with moderate loads, such as household appliances, lighting circuits, and electronic devices. The C tripping curve allows the device to efficiently respond to short circuits or overloads while offering sufficient flexibility to handle momentary current peaks without unnecessary tripping.

Main features:

• Rated current: 16A, ensuring protection for electrical circuits with higher current demands.
• Tripping curve: Curve C, suitable for circuits with mixed loads (resistive and inductive) requiring protection against overloads and short circuits.
• Breaking capacity: 4.5kA, ideal for handling short circuits in low and medium power electrical systems, ensuring safety and stability.
• Voltage type: AC/DC, making it versatile for a wide range of electrical applications.
• Rated voltage: 230V, suitable for standard residential and commercial electrical systems.
• Rated insulation voltage (Ui): 500V, providing a safe level of protection against discharges.
• Operating frequency: 60Hz, compatible with the most common electrical systems.
• Number of protected poles: 1 pole + neutral, ensuring simultaneous disconnection of phase and neutral in the event of an overload or short circuit.
• Protection degree (IP20): Provides adequate protection against solid objects over 12mm, making it ideal for indoor use in electrical panels.
• Installation depth: 76 mm, compact design for easy integration into standard distribution boards.
• Width of division units: 2 modules, allowing easy installation in distribution boards with limited space.
• Energy limiting class: Class 3, indicating a high capacity to limit short-circuit energy, protecting the electrical installation from potential damage.
