Thanks Controlnovice for the reply, I agree all those issues you higlighted are critical for a good detailed estimate. But my question really is that is there a tool for an un-constrained estimate? sometimes at the very early stage of a project, you want to do an un-constrained estimate of...
Please does any one know any application or spreadsheet for quickly estimating the number of Marshalling and System cabinets required for a DCS control system- assuming the number of I/O s to be terminated are known ?

To explain a little better:
I already have two valves interlocked together with the attached schematic, but I want to add a third valve with a simple modification to the existing scheme. The condition remains that only one valve will be open at the same time. Note also...
