Spanish term or phrase: I.ad.
This is talking about the wiring specifications for an electrical installation. I've got 197,000 hits for the exact term in connection with the norm (link below). Looking at the cable type I the only thing I see that is temperature related is "Maximum temperature" is 90ºC, and minimum service temperature, which is negative forty -40ºC, but could possibly be "

Inferior admisble?
Intensidad admisible at X °C?

I found nothing to support "Maximum amperage at * °C"

Castilian Spanish to UK English

TIA!!

Ampacity/current-carrying capacity
Explanation:
I.ad. = intensidad admisible

La corriente máxima (también conocida como corriente admisible y, sobre todo en los países hispanoamericanos, como ampacidad, tomado del inglés ampacity) es la máxima intensidad de corriente que puede establecerse de manera constante por un conductor sin sobrepasar los límites de temperatura que afecten las características físicas y eléctricas del mismo.

Ampacity is defined as the maximum current, in amperes, that a conductor can carry continuously under the conditions of use without exceeding its temperature rating.

Explanation:
I.ad > intensidad admisible (leave "i.ad" when translating as that appears to be the formula)
