Derating

The load capacity (current and power) decreases if the installation site altitude exceeds
1000 meters (3281 ft), or if the ambient temperature exceeds 45 °C (113 °F).

Temperature derating

In the temperature range +45 °C (+113 °F) ... +55 °C (+131 °F), the rated output current is
decreased by 2.5 % for every additional 1 °C (1.8 °F). The output current is calculated by
multiplying the current given in the rating table by the derating factor.
Example If the ambient temperature is 55 °C (+131 °F), the derating factor is
%
100% - 2.5
· 10 °C = 75% or 0.75. The output current is then 0.75 · I
°C

Altitude derating

At altitudes from 1000 ... 2000 m (3281 ... 6562 ft) above sea level, the derating is 0.5%
for every 100 m (328 ft). Derating is allowed only on maximum continuous current for grid
and generator. If the installation site is situated higher than 2000 m (6562 ft) above sea
level, contact ABB.
Alternatively the derating can be handled with cooling liquid temperature derating. 1 °C for
every 100 m. This means that in eg, 2000 m installation, the maximum liquid temperature
is 40 °C (instead of 50 °C) instead of 5% current derating.
