Schneider Electric | NS160N | Circuit Breaker | 160A | 3-Pole | 690V

Schneider Electric NS160N circuit breaker delivers dependable protection for three-phase electrical systems in industrial settings. With a 160A rating and a 3-pole configuration, it safeguards equipment against overcurrent while maintaining consistent phase balance, up to a 690V maximum.

Designed for maintenance, retrofit, and replacement projects, the NS160N is the precise match when your panel or distribution board requires Schneider Electric compatibility and exact specifications. Because the part number NS160N is the most reliable reference, matching this breaker ensures seamless integration with existing gear and wiring schemes.

Key considerations and benefits

• Three-phase protection: 3-pole design ensures simultaneous disconnection of all phases, helping prevent unbalanced loads and protecting motors and feeders.
• Voltage and current rating: 160A capacity with a maximum system voltage of 690V supports a wide range of industrial applications and feeders.
• Precise compatibility: The NS160N part number is the best reference for matching fit, ratings, and downstream components in Schneider Electric installations.
• Reliability for retrofit and replacement: Ideal when updating legacy gear or refreshing panels without modifying the surrounding infrastructure.
• Installation confidence: Aligns with Schneider Electric standards, reducing downtime and ensuring consistent electrical protection when paired with the appropriate panelboard or distribution equipment.

Ideal use scenarios

• Maintenance shutdowns or component upgrades in plants that operate three-phase motors and heavy feeders.
• Retrofits where existing breakers require exact NS160N specifications to maintain system performance and compliance.
• Replacement for aging or malfunctioning breakers in Schneider Electric-compatible panels and distribution boards.

What to verify before purchasing

• Confirm fit and ratings match your current panel or switchgear. The NS160N is the definitive reference for compatibility.
• Ensure the system voltage up to 690V aligns with your electrical distribution and that the 160A rating covers the intended load.
• Cross-check with installation manuals to maintain correct wiring, trip settings (as applicable), and safety procedures during replacement.

For reliable, predictable protection in industrial environments, the Schneider Electric NS160N circuit breaker delivers the exact spec alignment you need for maintenance, retrofit, and replacement projects—minimizing downtime while preserving peak performance across your three-phase system.
