7.16 Generator Derating
Description
All generators are subject to derating (reduced power output) depending on
the altitude and ambient temperature. Derating should not affect the opera-
tion of the lights, although it does reduce the available reserve power to the
receptacle.
Derating percentages
Power ratings are typically reduced by the following percentages:
• 3% per 300m(1000ft) elevation above sea level
• 2% per 5.5°C(10°F) increase in ambient temperature above 25°C(78°F)
