Conclusions. We have increased the PNe sample. The distribution of HII regions appear to be confined to the center of the galaxy instead PNe apparently being over the whole galaxy. We have derived the peak absolute magnitude of the luminosity function of NGC 6822. We get M*>4.48, Metallicity dependent?, problems with calibrations? Galactic extinction? In this work we obtained the abundances of 7 PNe. Given a total number of 10 PNe abundances for this galaxy. Two PNe in our sample are Type I (2. 4-8 Msun). Two are oxygen self-enrichment. This are not useful as observational constraint of Oxygen. All these results will be taken into account in our chemical model of NGC 6822. We have increased the PNe sample.
