## Symbol convention

Convention: IEC
Form: Connector changing wire identity
Autodesk IEC-60617 Symbol Preview — Connector forms that change wire numbers; vendor family reference, not certified IEC geometry or database identifier.

This form identifies a connector representation that allows wire-number identities to change across the interface.

## What it represents

This form identifies a connector representation that allows wire-number identities to change across the interface. The two sides retain their separate wire identifiers while the connector pin mapping shows how they connect. That numbering rule does not create a conversion or an isolated electrical function.
Record both wire labels at the correct pin identities. The mating connector relationship is the evidence of continuity across the numbering change.

## How to read it

- Keep both wire identifiers tied to the correct mating pins.
- A change in wire number does not by itself indicate electrical isolation, conversion or a change in voltage.

## Information to show or reference

- Identify the associated device, circuit or diagram boundary.
- Keep both wire identifiers tied to the correct mating pins.
- Cross-reference the equipment data, terminal mapping or operating-state legend needed to interpret the form.

## Important distinction

A change in wire number does not by itself indicate electrical isolation, conversion or a change in voltage.
