It's from the 2016 Nexus of Power Sourcebook(I'm sure it's been mentioned here before.) It lists most of the noteworthy force nexuses/vergences in the galaxy... Seems to be a mix of canon and Legends, tbh.
That said, I only posted those excerpts in this thread because they help corroborate information we were given in the Tarkin novelization:

Does that undermine Plagueis and Sidious' cosmic feats against the Jedi Order or Sidious' use of periodic Sith rituals to fog the Jedi's Force foresight?

Wait a moment. Isn't that Sith shrine depicted in Sithisis? Palpatine does same real job there.

It is confirmed. Palpatine needed a dark side nexus to do what he did.

On Kalakar Six and in Sithisis(a single torrent of his Force lightning turned into charred husk and ash three Dark Side Prophets and that Sith wyrm) Yet, he isn't able to do so with Windu(who is kind of 'unarmed' and receives his full power from the Force lightning)

Where canon is concerned, all we know is that the Sith shrine existed under the Jedi Temple, and helped to corrupt/weaken the Jedi(to *some* extent) over the years. We also know the shrine's influence may have ultimately made it easier for Palpatine to overthrow the Order as a whole.
That doesn't necessarily canonize the events of Sithisis by default, however.

Palpatine has to turn one of the most powerful Jedi in the Order into ash or his power is called into question? Wouldn't that signify the amount of power Windu has in his (one armed) body as opposed to a lack on Palpatine's part?
You might as well be putting everyone on the same resistance level to lightning if that's the case.

Also, Revan was able to deflect an ashy lightning attack against Nyriss with a bare effort.

Palpatine not turning Windu into ash while killing him wouldn't lead you into that false dichotomy. It means his power wasn't enough to instantly vaporize him, and he cut it off before that happened.
Do you think this would strengthen or hinder your case when looking at this without full context would imply the resistance to force lightning would have a direct correlation to your power, and is the difference between ash and unharmed? That of course would naturally flow into varying degrees of damage depending on your resistance.
