the accumulated average for consecutive 24 values during 5 minutes.


Explanation:
El uso de accumulated no se presta para malas interpretaciones, tal como se realizaría en español usar acumulado en lugar de arrastrado, lo que en México es demasiado fuerte si no ofensivo. El resto de la frase presenta ambiguedad para su interpretación pero me inclino a pensar que se trata de 24 valores consecutivos en periodos de 5 minutos.
