Note 1: If all your
answers are "Yes", the PIU is classified as a Parallel PIU. On the
other hand, if all the answers are "No", the PIU is classified as an
Integrated PIU. |
Note 2: If there are some "Yes"
answers and some "No", your PIU is classified as a Semi-Integrated
PIU, i.e., neither a Parallel PIU nor an Integrated PIU, but located
on the continuum between a Parallel PIU and an Integrated PIU.
(For further information and help in classifying the PIU in detail,
