805a and a 10 wire gen end

Good morning gents,

I recently purchased an 805 a. I was hoping it was going to be a 12 wire gen and, but it is not. Everywhere I research says I cannot use a 10 wire for single phase. But in thinking about it, if I remove the tap plate and just connect the wires in the config in the pic, it might work as a zig zag style. What is everyone’s thoughts?? The T0 I confirmed is a single wire coming out of the gen end itself(thus the orange circle).10 wire zig zag.jpeg

In a typical 12 lead zig zag, the normal paralleled windings are still in parellel. This diagram parallels a leg a with a leg c


I have my doubts of it actually working.
