Is the Schneider MT16N1 the same as the NW16N1?

No. The MT16N1 belongs to the Masterpact MT series (IEC standard), while the NW series is a different product line. Always verify the exact model number for your application.

What trip unit does the MT16N1 use?

The MT16N1 is compatible with Schneider's Micrologic electronic trip units. The specific trip unit variant depends on the configuration ordered.

Can you supply the drawout version of the MT16N1?

Yes. Konmask.com can source both fixed and drawout configurations of the Masterpact MT series.

What is the lead time for the Schneider MT16N1?

Lead time varies by stock availability. In-stock units typically ship within 3–5 business days. For out-of-stock items, lead time is confirmed at the time of quotation.

Do you provide a certificate of conformity for the MT16N1?

Yes. We provide available documentation including certificates of conformity, test reports, and packing lists with every shipment.

Description

Schneider Electric MT16N1 1600A Air Circuit Breaker – Masterpact MT Series

When a critical air circuit breaker fails in a high-load industrial power distribution panel, the consequences cascade instantly — production lines halt, safety systems lose primary protection, and every minute of downtime translates directly into financial loss. In environments where continuous power integrity is non-negotiable, the Schneider Electric MT16N1 is not a component you can substitute with an inferior alternative. Its absence is felt immediately; its presence is the silent guarantee that keeps your facility running.

The MT16N1 occupies a flagship position within Schneider Electric’s Masterpact MT series — a globally recognized platform engineered for low-voltage power distribution in demanding industrial and commercial applications. Rated at 1600A with a robust breaking capacity, the MT16N1 is deployed in main distribution boards, industrial switchgear, and critical infrastructure worldwide. As one of the most specified ACBs in the IEC market, it represents the intersection of Schneider Electric’s decades of power management expertise and the evolving demands of modern industrial automation.
