Get ready to weep a lake full if you ever have to worry about getting an A8.
What has more of an effect on how long I can fire 5 lasers... The distributor or power plant? Or both together?
The distributor only.
The Power plant simply has to support the total power all components you want turned on at the same time.
An A rated power plant will generate less heat, but otherwise matching up total output with consumption is all you need to do.
