    NOTES:
    (1) Spacings shown are minimum for energized parts to energized parts or energized parts to ground for elevations up to 3,300 feet above sea level. From 3,301 to 10,000 feet elevations, increase spacings by 10 percent, and above 10,000 feet elevation, increase spacings by 20 percent. For voltages above 230 KV, spacings shall be as required for the BIL of the system.
    (2) For intermediate values of system voltage, use next higher voltage in table.
