The effects of the second-order configuration interaction perturbations on the energy-level structure of nl N , and configurations have been studied. In the previous works (see Part I and II) we presented a method, which allows to analyse complex electronic systems composed of configurations including up to four open shells and the formulae for the first-order electrostatic interaction between sophisticated configurations. In the present paper we consider two-electron core excitations for and between the configurations under study. They constitute the basis for the design of an efficient computer program package allowing large-scale calculations providing accurate wave functions.
