Abstract
A method and apparatus for describing and managing properties of a transformer coil. A metadata text file is generated which contains metadata describing objects of the transformer coil. The objects are arranged hierarchically and have one or more related properties attached therewith. One or more properties of one object refer to one or more other properties of the same object or of other objects by means of paths defined in the metadata text file. The generated metadata text file is then stored.
