need help
Hi,I'm Selina from China, recently my company requires me to find a qualified translation company to translate an installation instruction of our receptacle product from English into Spanish. I found one and paid them for a short trial translation to test if they're competent. However, I know nothing about Spanish, all I know is Chinese and English...so I need a little help here and this is the only place where I know I might get help. Could you please check if the following translated Spanish contents is correct/idiomatic/native or not? If you're willing to help, please write your comments in Chinese or English (sorry I can't read Spanish...), thank you so much!

It's a pretty poor tranlation. It lacks both grammatical and technical accuracy (I'm an engineer...). Not suitable for a technical description of a device.
A few examples:
- Safety features = Especificaciones de seguridad
- GFCI = ID (Interruptor Diferencial)
- Electrical shock = Descarga eléctrica
- Cold impact = Choque térmico a bajas temperaturas
- “End of life” lockout and denial of power = Bloqueo y desconexión al final de su vida útil (EOL)
...and so on.
You shouldn't have even paid them for a trial!
