Plane surface is like surface on table top.  A point in space is defined by three coordinates  (x,y,z) in
cartesian coordinate system with respect to some reference point that is referred as Origin.
If a coordinate is constant on a surface referred in cartesian coordinate system , then this surface is plane.
For example , we have x = 0 on the surface shown in fig.(1) . This is called YZ plane .or x=0 plane
 
Since this YZ plane is passing through origin we get x = 0. If a palne parallel to this plane passing through
some other x-coordintae a then this plane is called as x= a plane.
 
Similarly XY plane or z=0 plane is shown in fig.(2) . Figure 3 shows the XZ plane or y=0 plane .
