[tech] Naming scheme for Power devices

[mitch at ucc.gu.uwa.edu.au]

Hi All,

I notice we have no Naming scheme for \"Power Devices\" such as  
UPS\'s, Solar etc.

So i thought perhaps we could name them after \"Famous Power Plants\"  
and as a result i came up with \"Itaipu\" for the 3Kva UPS.

 From Wikipedia:
The name \"Itaipu\" was taken from an isle that existed near the  
construction site. In the Guarani language, Itaipu means \"the sound  
of a stone\". The American composer Philip Glass has also written a  
symphonic cantata named Itaipu, in honour of the structure.

On May 5, 1984, the first generation unit started running in Itaipu.  
The first 18 units were installed at the rate of two to three a year;  
the last two of these started running in the year 1991.

The last two of the 20 electric generation units started operations in  
September 2006 and in March 2007, thus raising the installed capacity  
to 14,000 MW and completing the power plant. This increase in capacity  
will allow for 18 generation units to remain running all of the time  
while two stay down for maintenance. Due to a clause in the treaty  
signed between Brazil, Paraguay and Argentina, the maximum number of  
generating units allowed to operate simultaneously can not exceed 18  
(see the agreement section for more information).
