There is a standard height to hang a chandelier over a dining room table. This article will teach you what the proper height is to hang a chandelier over a dining room table.
Measure the depth of table. Most dining tables are 28 to 30" high (29 inches being most common).
Measure the distance between the table and the light fixture. The bottom of your light fixture should be 30 to 34 inches (76.2 to 86.4 cm) above the table.
Hang it even higher, so no one can possibly bump into it, if it is a translucent and solid chandelier.
Measure the distance between the chain of the chandelier and the ceiling. In a room with an 8 foot (2.4 m) ceiling, the cord/chain would be 3 feet (0.9 m) long, leaving your chandelier about 60 inches (152.4 cm) off the floor.
