Changing the definition of “mod” in spanish impossible?
I'm writing a math text in spanish and want to change the definition of the "mod" command. However, this seems impossible, as the following MWE shows:
documentclass{article}
usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
usepackage[spanish]{babel}
usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
usepackage{amsmath}
renewcommand{mod}{operatorname{changed}}
begin{document}
$a equiv b mod c$
end{document}
This produces the following output:
However, if I comment the line
usepackage[spanish]{babel}
in the above code, the result I get is
as I would expect.
The same phenomenon happens with other math operators that carry accents in spanish, like for example "max" or "lim", but it works for such that don't have accents, like "sin".

I guess that your aim is to use the standard unaccented operator names.
The trick is explained it the manual for babel-spanish, section 5.5.
documentclass{article}
usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
usepackage[spanish]{babel}
usepackage{amsmath}
% no accents in math operators
unaccentedoperators
begin{document}
$a equiv b mod{c}$
$lim_{xto c}f(x)$
$arcsin t$
$max A-min A$
end{document}
Beware that mod is not defined with operatorname and your proposed redefinition would be bad anyway.
Anyway, here's a correct way to proceed:
documentclass{article}
usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
usepackage[spanish]{babel}
usepackage{amsmath}
%unaccentedoperators
makeatletter
addtomathspanish{renewcommand{mod}{operatorname{mes@op@ac od}}}
makeatother
begin{document}
$a equiv b mod c$
end{document}
If you don't want the accent irrespective of accentedoperators or unaccentedoperators, remove the es@op@ac command.
In general, I don't recommend redefining some standard command to do different things (apart from printing just a different symbol). Better defining omod or whatever name you prefer.

Actually I do want to use the accented versions because they seem to be quite standard in spanish math texts, and I do want mod to behave like an operator (as this fits my mathematical needs better). For the same reason I want to redefine lim to denote categorical limits instead of analytic ones, so in any case this wouldn't solve my issue.

@MichaelFütterer I added a different version. I'm not sure where categorical limit notation is different from analytic notation.
