Ambient temperature
Operation: –5...40ºC, with an average in 24h of up to 35ºC. For application of the ABW
circuit breakers in environments with temperatures above 40°C, consider the maximum
values of nominal current presented in the table below:

Storage: –20...60ºC, with average in 24h of up to 35ºC.
Altitude of Installation
≤ 2000m. For application of the ABW circuit breakers at altitudes above 2000m, apply
the reduction factors of nominal voltage and current presented in the table below.
