However, outdoor installations, other factors such absolute temperature,

Notes for outdoor installation
The information the type protection and UV-resistance are
often considered the only important aspects for outdoor installations.69
Protection against plants and/or mould growth
The plastics used electrical installation are organic materials.
The protection rating tests carried out according DIN 60529 are
used comparative tests and for classification properties. addition, the local conditions may
differ greatly that general exposure test cannot defined.9. The risk
of harm from plants, algae mould must therefore considered.
