[EnergyPlus_Support] Weather conversion and time offset

["la.epfl@xxxxxxxxx [EnergyPlus_Support]" <EnergyPlus_Support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I am having an issue with the weather file conversion. I am using collected data to create an .epw file for simulation. I put here a sample of the data I am using

CSV: 
20/11/2015,00:00,13.300000000000001,84.0,5.0,8.0
20/11/2015,01:00,13.300000000000001,85.72274143302181,5.0,9.0
20/11/2015,02:00,13.800000000000001,82.0,5.0,8.0
20/11/2015,03:00,13.800000000000001,80.56357388316151,5.0,8.0
20/11/2015,04:00,13.699999999999999,86.0,5.0,8.0
20/11/2015,05:00,13.323364485981308,88.255451713395644,5.0,9.0

and the def file is:

&location
City=Lausanne
InLat=46.519
InLong=6.633
InTime=1
InElev=495
/

&wthdata
NumInHour=1
InputFileType='CUSTOM'
InFormat='DELIMITED'
DataElements=Date,HH:MM,Dry Bulb Temperature,Relative Humidity,Global Horizontal Radiation, total sky cover
DataUnits='dd/mm/yyyy','hh:mm','C','%','Wh/m2','tenths'
DataConversionFactors=1,1,1,1,1,1
DelimiterChar=','
DecimalSymbolChar='.'
/

&miscdata
Comments1='Standard EPW Custom def format for reading EnergyPlusCSV files in EnergyPlus Weather Converter'
SourceData='EnergyPlusCSV'
/

&datacontrol
NumRecordsToSkip=0
MissingWindDirAction=DEFAULT
MissingDataAction=DEFAULT
MissingOpaqueSkyCoverAction=DEFAULT
/

In the .epw file produced I have:
