Took out the extra junk. one side is +VDC, the other side is 0V.|

What does it mean when zener diodes are put anode to anode in a circuit? Wish I could insert a jpg. Makes it easier to communicate.
It creates a symmetrical Zener diode.| | 0V

You're welcome.Thank you all. That was very helpful.
Interesting......Attached is an image of what it looks like with back to back zener diodes acting as a clipping circuit. Assume the zener diodes to be 10 volt zener diodes and a 20 volt peak AC waveform is applied. The green trace is the full AC signal at the source and the red trace is measured between the top of D1 and Ground. Hope the cartoon helps.
