altitude
< 1000 (3300 ft.) m above sea level.
For application above 1000m (3300 ft.) C37.20.2 is applicable
Climate
To avoid the risk of corrosion or other damage in areas:
– with a high level of humidity, and/or
– with rapid and large temperature variations, take appropriate steps
(for example, by using suitable electric heaters) to prevent condensation
phenomena.
