Mechanical structures for electronic equipment. Outdoor enclosures. Design guidelines | Status: Superseded, Withdrawn

1 Scope This part of IEC 61969 contains design guidelines for outdoor enclosures and is applicable over a wide field of mechanical, electromechanical and electronic equipment and its installation where a modular design is used. The objective of this standard is to provide an overview of specifications for enclosures focused on requirements for outdoor applications for stationary use at non-weather protected locations. These enclosures are considered to contain any equipment and provide protection for the outdoor installed facilities against unwanted environmental impacts. The installed equipment may be, but is not limited to, subracks according to IEC 60917‑2‑2 or IEC 60297‑3‑101. A typical outdoor enclosure is shown in Figure 1. Figure 1 — Typical outdoor enclosure
