[QUOTE="Phoenix, post: 500495, member: 8133"] Start with a sort of rate 'template' and add 'fiddle factors' to adjust as necessary. So assume 25 circuits a day to start with (count submains as well as finals) in a reasonably well marked up installation, adjust downwards if its a very poorly labeled board, downwards even more if its going to be a pig to trace out (i.e. board in outside plant room of a three storey block). Whats the ease of taking readings, adjust downwards if there is a lot of spots or anticorrosives etc, as opposed to simple flouro battens, is the area in use? or are you doing it on a closed day, is it easy to arrange a shutdown, or very limited scope on timings? with IT to deal with ref servers etc, do you therefore need weekend working? Whats your initial opinion on the condition? losts of problems takes longer to type than a report with not much. My starting point would be two *long* days on site (possibly increasing to three depending on the tracing involved), with paperwork time on top which probably wouldnt be a full day paperwork, but would be more than half in all likelyhood [/QUOTE]
