Newcomer / Intro Where can I find info on the difference between Class and Ratings?

I'm not sure what relation one has to the other...I assume higher class is better and closer to A rating is better, but what if I'm comparing two items that one has a better class and the other has a better rating?

I think some are actually better suited to different ships so they appear out of place or useless. Just pay attention to the numbers.
 
Class=Size
Rating=Quality

Example.
A Cobra has Class 4 D rating Thrusters.
An upgrade for Class 2 A rating thrusters are available. They prove to be underpowered for the ship despite a good rating and light weight.
A Class 4 A rating set of thrusters is also available. They improve on the ships max mass immensely, it moves much faster, and the players wallet is now crying.
 
the letter is the class from F To A (A beeing the best)
The numbers indicate the size. From 1 to 6(?) 1 beeing the smallest.
