Volum frigorific m3
Potencia frigorifica frig/h
Potencia calorifica Kcal/h
Capacitat des elements fixos
Liquids inflammables Kg
Gasos inflamables Kg
There are no contextual clues, but this is a Ayuntamiento document describing premises. What exactly could they be referring to here? Is it to do with air-conditioning? Note that we are talking about a mere office.
Any clues?

these are all mechanical cooling (and heating) terms...
Volum frigorific m3 = Cooling volume, in cubic meters
Potencia frigorifica frig/h = Cooling potential, in frig/hour
Potencia calorifica Kcal/h = Heating potential, in Kcal (kilocalories) per hour
Capacitat des elements fixos = Fixed-element capacity
Liquids inflammables Kg = Inflammable liquids, in kilograms
Gasos inflamables Kg = Inflammable gases, in kilograms
A couple of notes: To be quantified in kilograms, the inflammable gases have pretty well got to be compressed (i.e., packaged in pressurized cylinders).
Second, I've never heard of, and have been unable to find (either online or among my reference books) a cooling unit known as a "frig." The standard unit, even for cooling, is the BTU (British Thermal Unit).
If anyone has better information, please pipe up!
Cheers,
HC

Comment: "EURODICAUTOM REFERS TO AN 'FG' AS A COOLING ENERGY UNIT OR ALTERNATIVELY TO A 'NEGATIVE KILO CALORIE'- TA FOR YOUR ANSWER, I CAN SEE IT'S ALL TO DO WITH AIR-CONDITIONING."
