The vowel before the final n न् of a base lengthens before /nAm.

Most nbases न्बसेस् (yogin- योगिन् nAman- नामन् rAjan- राजन्...) get no /nAm, because usually /nAm appears only after some vowel bases by hrasvanadyAp.... So this rule applies only to the /SaT that end in n न्, which get /nAm by SaTcaturbhyazca.

paJcan- पञ्चन् + /Am
paJcan- पञ्चन् + /nAm by SaTcaturbhyazca
paJcAn- पञ्चान् + /nAm by this rule
paJcA- पञ्चाॱ + /nAm by nalopaHprAt... by nalopaHprAt....
