Tech/Engineering - Energy / Power Generation / wind turbines
Spanish term or phrase: casuística
Regarding tests to be performed on wind turbines - "las potencias" are the capacitive and inductive reactive power: :

Las medidas de límites de potencias deberán cumplir con la casuística de estabilidad de la temperatura del equipo, en ambos sentidos.

English translation:parameters (here)
Explanation:
In this particular case I don't think either of the "usual" translations (case history or casuistry) really work.

However, in this case "... stability parameters of the equipment temperature, in both directions..." would appear to be a readily understandable rendering of the sentence.

This works, thanks.

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Toni Castano: This is also my reading. They are using a rather informal (and poorly written) wording to mean that precisely.: stability parameters (referred to temperature).

agree  psicutrinius: Exactly. Another case of a know-it-all writer using a word he has heard about without checking the exact meaning.
