About ACDT
Australian Central Daylight Time (ACDT) is UTC+10:30. It is used in Adelaide in summer.
Australian Central Daylight Time is UTC+10:30, what South Australia keeps from October to April. Darwin stays on ACST through the summer, so for those months two cities in the same nominal zone are an hour apart — the only reason to be precise about which of the two abbreviations a meeting invitation carries.
About NZDT
New Zealand Daylight Time (NZDT) is UTC+13. It is used in New Zealand from late September to early April.
New Zealand Daylight Time is UTC+13, one of the few offsets past twelve hours and therefore a full calendar day ahead of most of the Americas. New Zealand's summer is the northern hemisphere's winter, so NZDT applies over Christmas — the opposite of every northern daylight-saving abbreviation, and a common mistake in end-of-year scheduling.
Does this gap change with the seasons?
Neither ACDT nor NZDT shifts with the seasons, so this 2.5-hour difference holds all year. That is unusual enough to be worth relying on: most cross-continental gaps move twice a year.
This is the reason scheduling systems store an IANA zone such as Region/City rather than an offset or an abbreviation: the zone knows its own rules and the offset does not.
