Content DescriptionCritical infrastructure is commonly designed to withstand environmental stresses based on a statistical return period. For example, equipment may be designed to withstand wind speeds or ground acceleration spectra that will not be exceeded more than once every 100 years (100-year return period). Temperature extremes may be treated in a similar manner with the use of publicly available climate data and the application of established statistical methods. This paper examines the sources available for historical temperature data and describes the statistics applied to determine minimum and maximum return period temperatures.About NEMANEMA is an abbreviation for National Electrical Manufacturers Association. It is a trade association representing manufacturers of electrical products and equipment. NEMA develops and publishes industry standards for various aspects of electrical engineering, including enclosures, motors, and more. |
