Add custom column

let
    split = Text.Split([Column1],":"),
    value = Number.From(split{0})/24 + Number.From(split{1})/(24*60) + Number.From(split{2})/(24*60*60),
    total_dur = [ days = Number.IntegerDivide(value,1), hhmmss = Time.From(Number.Mod(value,1)) ] 
in
    total_dur

Thanks for your help.

I use function Table.splite : add three columns (hh,mm,ss) and select data (text to Integer ).

I look at your way.
