Connector changing wire identity

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.
