Platine d'excitation

"Was this a discounted writing also for the French text?"
I don't know what the manufacturer is paying their technical writers, but there are a few places in the document where some more precise explanations could have been justified. You've only seen the worst on proz. They don't go in much detail about the "plaque d'excitation", so I cannot add any further information about how it is put together. Thanks again for all your suggestions (whether dicounted or not :-) in this and other Kudoz questions.

Explanation received from client: "plaque supportant un syst�me �lectronique d'excitation". So, it IS an "excitation plate", even though both the French and the English terms do little to explain what we're talking about. The non-discounted translation will explain with a few words what this is.

Careful Dusty, if df49f does it as a discounted low-rate not so perfect job, translators using power from this generator model risk getting not-so-perfect electricity into their computers. :-)

The discount-rate translation is not offered for product manuals and similar stuff and is almost only used by private individuals for less important translations. Same principle as the discount supermarkets.
