Can you post a reference?

And by the way, in the future, I'm sure you'd get a more positive response if you didn't insist on dictating how fast people should respond to your post.

Learn some manners.
 
but sir, i did not do anything wrong. so why are you saying all that learn some manners i know how to converse. And if i want to get my answer little early so what's wrong in it
 
...so why are you saying all that ...

You won't take the time to clearly state your question
yet you ask others to jump for you ?

When one asks a favor of this sort one should:
explain why the rush,
make it clear what is being asked,
and offer appreciation for any help.

Is "plant" a steam electric generating plant, a windmill, a grape vine, a theater or a factory?

Is "utilization factor" a measure of its production, its availability, or its attendance?

Most folks won't rush to the aid of somebody who appears to not value them or their time.

Part of it may be a language barrier issue.

In any case, please answer the technical questions that have been asked of you to clarify where you read that the utilization factor can be larger than one. As you can tell from the responses, we are skeptical about this statement. Thank you.

I did not think of that. I apologize if your feelings were hurt.

That is not helpful. Perhaps still the translation issue...
