German term

F/v /I)

German to English Tech/Engineering Automotive / Cars & Trucks damper
I'm translation the specifications for a vertical dynamic control damper for cars.

Die wesentliche Bauteile für die elekronische Dämpferregelung sind:

XXX (other components)

- In der Leistungselektronik hinterlegten dämpferspezifischen Kennfeldern (F/v /I)

That's all the relevant context I'm afraid. Any ideas?

(F/v/I)

[Are you sure you're talking about a 'damper' and not a GB 'silencer' or USA 'muffler'?]
F = Farad; v = volt; I = electric current
I'd say you leave the letters as the terminology is international.

F / v / I

The translation stays the same, but I´d read the symbols as the normal symbols in physics:

v = speed; velocity
F = force
I = electric current
Peer comment(s):

neutral Sandy A Pirie : It was the 'elektronisch' in the context that made me think the letters meant whah they did. The fact the 'v' was lower case puzzled me however. It's incredible the trouble that careless typing can cause for a translator. Have a pleasant weekend, Sandy
