Voltage Derating as a Function of the Site Altitude
In addition to current derating, voltage derating must also be considered at site
altitudes >2000 m above sea level.

NOTE
The current, voltage, and output values specified in the following tables are rated
values.
The cables to the cabinet unit are protected with fuses with gL characteristic.
The connection cross-sections are calculated for three-core copper cables installed
horizontally in free air at an ambient temperature of 30 °C (86 °F) (in accordance
with DIN VDE 0298 Part 2 / Group 5) and the recommended line protection in
accordance with DIN VDE 0100 Part 430.
AWG (American Wire Gauge for cross-sections < 120 mm²); MCM (Mille Circular
Mil): American wire gauge for cross-sections > 120 mm².
