SLD / Schematic · Dz6
What it represents
Dz6 combines an HV-side delta winding designation with an LV-side zigzag designation and clock group 6. The letters describe connection topology; the final number identifies the phase relationship recorded with the transformer connection diagram. It is different from the voltage ratio or the number of terminals.
A drafter should preserve the full Dz6 designation across the SLD, transformer schedule and protection references. A zigzag winding must retain its own topology label rather than be abbreviated to an ordinary star winding. Check the selected transformer terminal diagram and the protection application documentation; the concept preview does not specify polarity tests, parallel-operation suitability or relay settings.
How to read it
- Preserve the full group notation and verify the terminal/phase relationship in the selected transformer diagram.
- The clock-group suffix is different from a voltage ratio, power rating or physical terminal number.
Information to show or reference
- Identify the associated device, circuit or diagram boundary.
- Preserve the full group notation and verify the terminal/phase relationship in the selected transformer diagram.
- Cross-reference the equipment data, terminal mapping or operating-state legend needed to interpret the form.
A distinction that matters
The clock-group suffix is different from a voltage ratio, power rating or physical terminal number.
