What are the Electricity:Plant constituents?

I have a single-zone office building. I'm trying to break down the electricity constituents that make up each meter type: Building + HVAC + Plant + Exterior = Facility, according to this link (equation at bottom of section).

I have verified the following for my building (I'm using meter names here):

Electricity:Building = InteriorEquipment:Electricity + InteriorLights:Electricity

Electricity:HVAC = Fans:Electricity

Electricity Exterior (there's no meter for this) = ExteriorLights:Electricity

Electricity:Plant is the only meter I have not been able to break down into its constituents. Is there a documentation page on Big Ladder that describes this, or does someone know what the constituents are?
