@ guillen While there may be little context, it would, therefore, be fair (and an assumption too on my part (??)) that you still don't know whether it is about generators or cooktops/hobs either and precisely the reason for my earlier entry. Would it then not be a reason to check with the client, if you can, for clarification? I will leave it there! Regards.
guillen (asker) Sep 21, 2020:
The context that was provided is all there was in the document. Usually, lack of context is precisely the problem. The words "cocinas de induccion" appeared on a list within a document with no other explanation or reference to the phrase. I thank everyone who took the time to provide input or comment.
Taña Dalglish Sep 21, 2020:
@ guillen Again, I reiterate what Pheonix III said. More context is needed! What is surprising now is that the question is now graded and closed! I respect the Askers' choices always, but you haven't yet given ANYONE here who has tried to help you any further context! Regards.

@Asker More context is needed.
David Hollywood Sep 17, 2020:
you really have to provide some context to clarify otherwise it's guesswork...
Taña Dalglish Sep 17, 2020:
@ Guillen The lack of context is abysmal! Now, does it have anything to do with this? https://www.revistaespacios.com/a19v40n13/19401311.html Impact of induction stoves penetration over power quality in Ecuadorian households

Cooking? I wasn't able to find anything for "cocinas de inducción" except induction cooktops or variants of that term. We have no helpful context here - is it possible the company is just listing the equipment for its cafeteria kitchens, or break rooms, or something like this?

induction generators

Just a wild guess.

Induction generator - Wikipediaen.wikipedia.org › wiki › Induction_generatorAn induction generator or asynchronous generator is a type of alternating current (AC) electrical generator that uses the principles of induction motors to produce electric power. Induction generators operate by mechanically turning their rotors faster than synchronous speed.

induction hobs

There's a lack of context, but I think it refers to this type of hobs.

It may just refer to induction cookers (stoves/hobs(cooktops...etc.), which are increasingly popular nowadays.
