12.2.1 Derating Data
Current Derating as a Function of the Site Altitude and Ambient Temperature
If the cabinet units are operated at a site altitude >2000 m above sea level, the
maximum permissible output current can be calculated using the following tables.
The site altitude and ambient temperature are compensated here. The degree of
protection selected for the cabinet units must also be taken into account.
