dcpcnclablc capacity for the net dcctrical rating of the unit. there may be occasions when the daily

_. average power level exceeds the I 00% line (or the rcstrkted power level* line). In such cases, the

) average daily unit power output shed should be footnoted to explain tile apparent anomaly. . .
