3. Special Operating Conditions

• When the switchgear is used in plateau areas with altitude higher than 1000m, plateau type products must be adopted;
• When the ambient temperature exceeds 40℃, the rated short-time withstand capacity of the switchgear will be reduced by a certain coefficient. For heat dissipation, auxiliary cooling equipment needs to be added, which shall be communicated with the manufacturer when placing an order;
• When operating in a climate environment with high temperature, fast temperature change speed and large temperature difference, there may be a risk of condensation. Confirm with the manufacturer when placing an order, install anti-condensation device, deliver as early as possible, and ensure all-weather power input.

7. Installation Dimensions

7.1 On-site Preparation

• The iPanel-M installation site shall be tidy, the ground must be flat and the horizontal deviation shall not exceed 2mm/m (see cable channel drawing);
• Reserve at least 1500mm in front of the iPanel-M (reserve 2500mm of available space for double-row cabinet face-to-face installation, see iPanel-M installation dimension drawing) to fully open the door, facilitate operator's maintenance and repair or use lifting equipment (when applicable);
• Reserve at least 800mm of available space from the top of the iPanel-M for top connection;
• The depth of the groove for cables passing through the bottom of the equipment must be at least 800mm to ensure the minimum bending radius of the cables.

7.2 Minimum Reserved Distance

The reserved space distance around the switchgear is shown in the following figure (notes):
① The cabinet depth is 1450mm for underground incoming line, 1610mm for overhead incoming line, and the actual dimensions are subject to the order requirements;
② If the switchgear is arranged in double rows face to face, only 2500mm is reserved for this dimension;
③ If the switchgear is arranged in double rows face to face and the phase crossing bridge is used for each phase, the dimension needs to be reserved more than 100mm.
