In some places, like Spanish Wikipedia[1], people consider "SA" acronym
as valid. On the other hand, googling a while, we can find sites where,
mysteriously, "AS" acronym is inherited verbatim from English ("SA" is
not considered).
Anyway, i suggest translate it as "Sistema autónomo: ", to avoid
possible confusions to end users.
