Measure twice cut once. It doesn't matter whether you understand the units, 
only whether you measured the requirements in those unit. Signing off on a 
cable order without measuring is an open invitation for failure.

BTW, I'm an American, and I understand Metric unit a lot better than I do the 
English units. How many inches are in a rod How many gills in a gallon?

Subject: Re: GRS in MONOPLEX without physical CTCs ?

And don't do like I did a few years ago :)  A co-worker ordered four
3-meter FICON cables for CTC connections from one card to another on the
same machine.  Since I'm American I don't really know how long a meter
is so I said "sure".  When I went on site, a couple of cables had to run
from one side of the z13s to the other, and they barely made it by going
under the frame - but still above the raised floor.  A bit tacky.
