Direct answer
What this result means
Estimate relative humidity from dry-bulb air temperature and dew-point temperature using the Magnus relationship. The relationship RH = 100 es(Td) / es(T) ties air temperature and dew-point temperature directly to the reported result. Air and dew-point temperatures are expressed in degrees Celsius. Treat the value as a transparent preliminary calculation, then compare it with the actual cable-entry assembly and current product documentation.
Formula & theory
Make the assumptions visible.
RH = 100 es(Td) / es(T) defines the calculation shown here. Air and dew-point temperatures are expressed in degrees Celsius. Keep the entered units with the result so another reviewer can reproduce the method.

Variables
Use sequence
From measurement to review
- Confirm air temperature and dew-point temperature from a controlled drawing, measurement or project document.
- Apply RH = 100 es(Td) / es(T) with consistent units and keep the entered values beside the result.
- Use estimated relative humidity only after checking sensor accuracy, pressure range, representative ambient conditions and the limits of the Magnus approximation.
Limits
What this calculation does not confirm
- Air and dew-point temperatures are expressed in degrees Celsius.
- Inputs describe one defined operating or measurement condition and use mutually consistent units.
- The result does not by itself confirm product suitability, standards compliance, ingress performance or installation approval.
