Dear Moderator

I do not involve in commercial installation. I am a post graduate students at a university (researcher), and we have been discussing this matter with other collegues.

If my question is not relevenat to DIY, please just delete this treat.

Thank you

Don't you just love it here!

We typically see PFs of around 0.9 for our Data Centres

I must confess I thought it would be lower, but I just went to check and they are all around the 0.89 - 0.91 mark.

Hope this helps

I'm not going to apologise. He's posted three topics re various things thats well outside the remit of this forum and only hypothetical for his project.

Also, I scrogged my back and I am NOT in a very good mood as I'm losing ££ not working and paying out what I earn in 2 hours to some gorilla to bend my bones & it only takes him 5 minutes AND I dont get a certificate.

Rant over, for now
