     temperature and wind velocity
5 Limiting radius (RL) of cylinder above which no, or
     very little, ice is formed

Fundamental properties, quantities for characterization and a classification of environmental conditions relevant for electrotechnical products. Defines characteristics of precipitation and wind as background for the severities to which products are liable to be exposed during transportation, storage and use.
