1. I have a table with data from other file and formulas with structured reference to that table.
2. When I rename column in file with data source it causing #REF! error in formula with structured reference in output file.
3. PowerQuery not include any column names.
Is there any way to avoid breaking that structured reference in formula?
Thank you for your answers but I prefer version with column name. Is there any solution in that way?

You can avoid referencing the column name in the formula.
Reference instead the column A.
=List1(A:A)
