Myango:

No rules of thumb that I know, just have to do a quick study for power, air, and water and determine how much of each is required based on the man power, equipment & work that will be done/used. Then determine if the exisiting plant has excess capacity and can provide or if you need to set up temporary gen sets, air compressors & water tanks.
