  8. Rating plate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rating_plate

    A rating plate on a machine carries information about its operational limits. The plate frequently contains the names of the machine and its manufacturer, so the rating plate is often called a name plate (hence the term "nameplate capacity" for a generator), although many devices carry separate nameplates and rating plates.

  9. Nominal power (photovoltaic) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nominal_power_(photovoltaic)

    The nominal power of PV devices is measured under standard test conditions (STC), specified in standards such as IEC 61215, IEC 61646 and UL 1703. Specifically, the light intensity is 1000 W/m 2, with a spectrum similar to sunlight hitting the Earth's surface at latitude 35°N in the summer (airmass 1.5), the temperature of the cells being 25 °C.
