Help for electrical installation in high altitudes
(OP)
Hello to everybady
I've a project regarding instalation of switcgears in high altitudse up to 4000m.
I'm not familiar of the new demands and I'd like have assistance about it.
So I'm interesting for IEC standards, recommentations or other info, to enable me start up and manage in the write way the project.
Thank you very muh

Reduced dielectric strength of air
Reduced heat transfer capability of air
Without knowing more about the type of switchgear, voltage levels, etc., it is difficult to offer specific references.
The equipment standards will be based on a maximum altitude. Above that altitude, de-rating factors will apply, primarily to maximum voltage, but also perhaps to the maximum rated current.
