Italian term or phrase: percentuali di tempo ponderate

This is from a text relative to forklift operating modes. It also mentions European standard EN 12053 - but I don't see the connection here.
Thanks!

44 mins confidence:

considered percentage of total time

Explanation:
I agree with Mr. Cox, but since the expression makes no sense if it is translated that way, maybe "ponderare" is used in the 'consider' sense. (Although in this context one would expect it to mean what Mr. Cox suggested). Anyway, perhaps this fits better into your text.

percentage of time taken into account

Explanation:
This might be easier to read though "considered percentage of time" also means the same
