Since the release of PartL 2010 v4.1.g and PartL 2013 v5.3.a, the PartL 2010 program has been moved from V25 Design Database into V26 Design Database. This allows the user to uninstall V25 software, unless they are producing Republic of Ireland EPC's
As both PartL 2010 and PartL 2013 are now in the same program, the user may consider this as a potential comparison tool between the versions, but this should not be attempted. An existing V25 project should only be run in PartL 2010, V26. And any new V26 projects, should be run in PartL 2013. There should be no new PartL 2010 projects at this time.
The dataset for 2010 and 2013 Part L calculations are substantially different. So much so that once a PartL 2010 calculation is brought into the 2013 program, the project can only be used as a PartL 2013 calculation.Consideration should also be made that with the different datasets and calculations, comparison's are essentially useless.
