Buyer questions
What exactly is being ordered?
The order must state C16N32D100 in full, with quantity, equipment tag and required accessories. The category collage is a reference image and is not a photograph of the exact C16N32D100 configuration.
What makes the selection valid?
For C16N32D100, compare the verified data above with circuit duty, supply, mounting, wiring and the current Schneider Electric instructions. Similar-looking codes do not prove interchangeability with C16N32D100.
What must maintenance retain?
Keep the delivered C16N32D100 label, configuration or setting backup, and acceptance-test record. These help identify the installed C16N32D100 during later service.
Inspection before energising
Inspect C16N32D100 on receipt for the exact suffix, readable nameplate, undamaged body and matching terminals. Compare the manufacturer data for C16N32D100 with the drawing and the physical installation. Do not rely on visual appearance or the shared image to approve a rating.
When replacing an installed item with C16N32D100, isolate the equipment, retain wiring identifiers and save any programmable settings. Complete a controlled functional test after C16N32D100 is fitted, with the responsible engineer approving any changed protection or control behavior.
Similar-looking designation register
These 7 codes share the visible C16N pattern with C16N32D100 and are consolidated here rather than becoming separate pages. Their individual voltage, contacts, range, connection, approval or size may differ; verify each complete code before use.
Procurement handover
The final purchase and commissioning record for C16N32D100 should contain the full model code, source document, selected site parameters, accessories and test result. This makes a future repeat order of C16N32D100 traceable while keeping other similar-looking models distinct.
