Do you have a Arrival Time column in your table? If yes, please try with following measure.

 

AVERAGE = 
FORMAT (
    CALCULATE (
        AVERAGE ( Table1[Arrival Time] ),
        ALLEXCEPT ( Table1, Table1[TimeHour] )
    ),
    "HH:MM: SS"
)

Hi, if your answer helped me with the above problem.

But I have another very similar problem in that I try to use the same formula but I can not make it work.

 

I'm working with "direct query" and I need to get the average "work time"

Something very similar to this. AVERAGE_WT = FORMAT (AVERAGE (View_AllRequests [Average Work Time]), "HH: MM: SS")

But I always get error.
