John, Do they supply an average and what the standard deviation is? And, does it follow a Gaussian distribution?
Designing for the case of 19 out of 20 sites doesn't make me comfortable. I would want to design for the highest percentage of sites while balancing the manufacturing costs.

I recall something like 0.4+0.2j IEC TR 60725. 0.4 + j0.25 ohm. It isn't the maximum, it's the value at the point of common connection which is not exceeded at 90% of sites. It's information on North American systems which is meagre. -- Regards, John Woodgate, OOO - Own Opinions Only.
