: Un schéma de principe n'est pas un "engineering schematic" qui est un terme très général. Block ou functional diagram sont nettement meilleurs et plus utilisés dans les spécif techniques

block/schematic diagram
Two possibilities, but it depends what is shown in the diagram.

: "block diagram" is very common in the U.S. (not sure if it conveys principe though)

outline diagram
Where I am not sure of the exact appearance of the diagram or drawing, I tend to ply safe and use this: the 'outline' takes care of the 'principe' with suitable vagueness, and it implies that it gives an overall impression of the system as a whole, without going into detail.
'functional diagram' is also good
'functional diagram' is also good
