: I agree: when I hear (or read) the phrase "entre sí," I immediately hear "inwardly" in English. The trouble is, "sub-minisiter of the motors inwardly" can't seem to be the correct translation in this context. I'm just not sure. Thanks for your input.

of motor interaction
I've never heard anything like the phrase, "motors inwardly," and the only Google result on the entire Internet is, "to thereby force the piston rods of these motors inwardly at a lower pressure," which obviously refers to something completely different: the piston rods are being forced inwardly.
Here are some mere guesses. If you could give a bit more context, it might help. Is anything else about the plant described? If you have absolutely no more context, maybe some of these will help someone else find a good translation. (Please forgive the "sub-minister" thing! In a bit of a hurry.)

: Let me advise you on something, when one suggests other term it is not polite to give a neutral to a colleague...

It is almost impossible to imagine how "inwardly" could make sense in this context. I do think it is our responsibility to point these things out, for the sake of the glossary. No disrespect to our answering colleague.
