You do not say 16" Intel or 16" M1 ? Look at the Tech specs for your machine if in doubt.


Use USB-C cables with your Mac - Apple Support


You can use Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) and USB-C cables to charge your Mac, transfer data, and connect your Mac to other devices and displays.


it is the power brick that determines charging—not the cable.
