Rank: Super forum user		Does anyone have any guidance on what EN511 standards equate to in real life? That is, I've got as far as determining that EN511 2.x.x (for example) indicates that the convective cold resistance is between 0.15 and 0.22 m2 degreeC per Watt, but what does that mean in terms of (e.g.) is it comfortable for most people at -5C for a 10 hour shift? I don't seem to be able to find any (even indicative) guidance.

Rank: Super forum user		Hi achrn Perhaps not entirely authoritative in terms of answering your Q but "indicative" guidance in Table 12 and other text in Warehousing and storage: A guide to health and safety HSG76 (hse.gov.uk)
