hello

Nodal Plane - It is an imaginary plane passing through the nucleus on which the probability of finding an electron is nil or zero.

An orbital has 'l' nodal planes where l is Azimuthal/Secondary/Subsidary or Angular momentum quantum structure.

For examples : s orbital has no nodal plane, p orbital has one, d orbital has two and f orbital has three nodal planes .

Hope this helps.
