Do these 2 definitions sound ok?
I should translate them from Russian into Engish. The thing is that there are no exact equivalents of these two types of documents in English/American law. I just want the names sound not so bad.
P.S. And it's better to use ACT than CERTICITATE

Act of acceptance and transfer of equipment for installation.

Act of revealed defects of equipment

Answer

To translate legal text, you often need to know the whole context. My best guess here for a good word is "notice". "Act" feels wrong. "Certificate" is possible but has a different function to "notice". If it's important to get this right, then you could book a trial lesson with a lawyer/teacher like me and discuss a few terms to get your money's worth.

Answer

Hello Tatiana,

Your first sentence is fine in your context however the second one would be better as 'Act of defects found in the equipment.'

Hope this helps
