No offence, but when i have to make an effort to read your post, and decipher the text talk.... I lose all motivation to help.

No sparks (to the best of my knowledge) own an enigma machine.

You have a full sized qwerty keyboard in front of you, no limit on characters, use em!

Dont know if this is of help either I use it on PIR and it saves time because all I need to do is fill in the boxes. I can send mor Zs sheets I have made up giving you the figures with 80% factor built in and the RED book tables as well

Forgot to add Lenny I have now found out how to attach pdfs

This is some strange foreign language , Pleeze speeky einglish
 
Lenny or anyone else that knows, for the purposes of an on site assessment by nikky if asked to refer to the max Zs values would you refer to the BRB or the OSG ambient temp adjusted one's ? I ask only because the spark I am getting some advice from for registration seemed to think the inspector would like to see that you know your way around the big red book ?
 
It asks for max permitted values by BS 7671 not OSG or anyone else.

If the question gets asked you could say that you use the BS 7671 values on your certificates but also mention that any calculations you do are compared to the 80% corrected values in the OSG.

They love that kind of thing do the assessors.
