Schneider iC65 & iC60 Miniature Circuit Breakers, 1P/2P/3P/4P Optional

Key differences at a glance:

Detailed technical specifications:

1. General technical parameters

The following parameters are basically the same for the iC65 and iC60 series:

Size and Function:

Both the iC65 and iC60 belong to the Schneider Acti 9 series, and their modular mounting dimensions and electrical accessories are interchangeable, allowing for seamless use.

📏 Physical Dimensions: Completely Identical

Both use a standard 18mm width module (1P is 18mm, 2P is 36mm, and so on), supporting 35mm DIN standard rail mounting.

● Width: 18mm per pole (1 module). For example:

○ 1P circuit breaker width = 18mm

○ 2P circuit breaker width = 36mm

○ 4P circuit breaker width = 72mm

● Height: Approximately 84mm - 91mm (slight variations depending on accessories)

● Depth: Approximately 73.5mm - 77mm

▏ When planning installation within a distribution box, space can be calculated based on the uniform dimensions.

🔧 Universality and Accessories: Fully Compatible

This is the core of their interchangeability—all electrical accessories for the iC65 and iC60 are interchangeable.

1. Standard Accessories are Universal:

○ Official Confirmation: Schneider Electric officially states that the iC60N DT two-terminal circuit breaker can be fitted with iC65 electrical accessories (such as iMN, iMX, iOF, etc.).

○ Accessory List: Shunt trip units (iMX), auxiliary contacts (iOF), alarm contacts (SD), overvoltage and undervoltage accessories, etc., are all universally compatible.

2. Residual Current Device (RCD) Accessories are Universal:

○ Vigi iC65 RCD accessories are clearly marked as compatible with both the iC60 and iC65 series circuit breakers.

3. Wiring Accessories are Universal:

○ Comb busbars compatible with iC65 are also compatible with iC60 and can be used with confidence.
