plot sur cuivre

Tony M May 19, 2018:

@ Asker In Printed Circuit Board jargon, a 'plot' can also be a 'land' (just another word for a 'pad'), and I would understand 'sur cuivre' to imply that this is a PCB land on the copper side of the board; however, quite where Citroën fits into this I dond' know! I'm suspecting the possiiblity of a rather confusing OCR error; unless there is some particular shape or type of PCB land that is know by this manufacturer-specific jargon term — probbaly because Citroên — no strangers to "quirky" technology! — were perhaps the first (or indeed!) only people to use it.
Given that Google has returned me not a single "plot Citroën", I'm leaning more and more towards a typo — do you have any idea if your document has ever at some point been OCR-ed?

Plot can mean a terminal or a pad in addition to contact. I do not understand "sur cuivre". I was going to translate as copper terminal, but "sur cuivre" is on copper.

Just parts. PC cards primarily.

If it's a single item in a parts list, there is surrounding text.

Neal Allen (asker) May 18, 2018:

Surrounding text There is really no surrounding text. It is a single item in a parts list.

"Contact" is one meaning of "plot". But why Citroen if this is about boats? Could you give us some of the surrounding text?
