If the note from a drawing, you can write "At El.-4.5". No articles & prepositions! IMHO

Peer comment(s):

agree Andrew Sabak : without the minus sign? / I was just wondering whether that was just a dash separator or a negative level!

Why? Elevations may be negative. // I'd say it's a minus.
agree Dorene Cornwell : Does the context give any clues about whether it's a minus or a dash? If in doubt, ask the client.
