| spillway_length3 | Length of 3rd spillway. |
| spillway_capacity3 | Capacity of 3rd spillway. |
| spillway_volumetric_flow_rate3 | 3rd Spillway volumetric flow rate. |
| res_name | Name of upstream body of water, if different than "dam_crosses". |
| res_capacity_total | Capacity of reservoir, i.e. megalitres. |
| res_capacity_active | The active, live or useful capacity (storage) of the reservoir. |
| res_capacity_inactive | The inactive or dead capacity (storage) of the reservoir. |

| plant_operator | Operator(s) of the hydroelectric power plant. |
| plant_commission | Power plant commissioning date. May be different than dam opening date. |
| plant_decommission | Power plant decommissioning date. May be different than dam closing date. |
| plant_type | Type of hydroelectric power station. Enter any one of the following auto-expanding fields: C=Conventional, P=Pumped-storage, R=Run-of-the-river, T=Tidal barrage.
|
| plant_hydraulic_head | Hydraulic head at power station. |
| plant_turbines | Number of turbines, with respective rated capacity. Exclude any reversible turbine-generators (pump/generators) and pumps from this — it should only contain conventional generation-only turbines. |

For pumped storage, please try to rely solely on third-party sources, as manual capacity factor calculations are overly complex for PSH and their results do not align with figures in (authoritative) third-party sources. |
| plant_efficiency | Overall efficiency of the power station, in percentage. Generally only applicable to pumped storage. |
| plant_storage_hours | Storage capacity of the power station, in hours (if desired, you can also provide calculated or actual GWh figures in parenthesis). Generally only applicable to pumped storage. |
| plant_annual_gen | Average annual power generation. To be used in combination with the following plant_annual_gen_year parameter. GW·h suffix will auto added for number without unit or any text appended.
|
| plant_annual_gen_year | Given generation value exact description. If no description is given, it will default to Annual (i.e. it will expand to Annual generation). Enter following text:
|
| website | Raw wikitext for entering website(s). Use [brackets] where appropriate |
| extras | Free form, spans both columns. Use sparingly. |
Coordinates
The coordinates should be specified using coordinates – with a {{coord}} template. See Wikipedia:WikiProject Geographical coordinates#Parameters for more details about setting the coordinates_type.
