A9F74216 2-pole Acti9 iC60N breaker: rating, protection curve and installation checks
Schneider Electric A9F74216 is a two-pole Acti9 iC60N miniature circuit breaker for low-voltage branch protection. Its 16 A rating and C-curve response must be checked against the load, conductor and available short-circuit current.

What the code identifies
The A9F74216 reference identifies a particular 2P, 16 A C-curve configuration. A breaker with the same housing may have a different pole count, current rating or tripping curve. Read the complete reference on the installed unit rather than selecting a replacement by appearance alone.
Electrical selection
Before specifying A9F74216, compare the upstream protection, load profile and cable current-carrying capacity. Check the prospective fault current at the installation point against the breaking capacity applicable to the local supply and standard. The rating values in the table are not a substitute for a coordinated protection study.
Panel fit and commissioning
Check DIN-rail space, terminal access, busbar compatibility, conductor preparation and labeling. After installation, verify pole assignment and secure connections using the approved site procedure. Record the final circuit identification and test results so future maintenance staff can distinguish A9F74216 from nearby iC60 devices.
Ordering a spare
A procurement enquiry for A9F74216 should include the full reference, two-pole requirement, 16 A rating, C curve, applicable standard and a photo of the existing nameplate. If a distributor proposes another A9F742 code, ask for the exact electrical difference and written fit confirmation before substitution.
Similar-looking model references
These visually similar A9F742 references belong in the same ordering-code discussion, but their current ratings differ. They are not interchangeable with A9F74216 by default.
