I'm still suggesting a 1157 instead of 1156. I think the extra voltage helps keep it cooler? i.e. If the short is simple, like a metal wheel flange catching a frog wrong, the 1157 don't seem to get as

Hi, I have all track protected by PSX breakers.? And also have run a Cat5 pair from them to a central display (labelled) with LEDs that show which district(s) are shorted.? I personally don't like

If you use a readily available wired lamp holder, Mr. Gibbons excellent suggestion is even easier.

John, I am currently using an enhanced DCC overcurrent protection solution using a #2057 taillight lamp and a 0.9A 'PTC Fuse'. This combination works to limit DCC short circuit current to a lower

I mentioned my using 1157, not 1156. That makes a difference. Morgan Bilbo, DCC since 8/18. Model PRR 1952.

Howdy. I have used it. I had a Keller OnBoard system orginally, and used the 1156 bulbs for protection of each block. When I converted to DCC, I added PSX circuit breakers but (mostly) left the 1156

Thank you so much guys for all the great feedback. I will follow your suggestion to try and solve my dilemma. Thanks again, Mike Ballou ________________________________ Sent: Friday, July 28, 2023

Thank you so much guys, that gives me hope..

Take a look at your switches. They direct power in different ways. You may need to add insulated joiners on the diverging end. When wiring, I often do one rail at a time. I'll drop all the back rail

Sounds like you’re crossing bus lines and creating the short through the wiring itself. Make a test buzzer, how to on wiringfordcc.com. Use the buzzer when doing your wiring. It will buzz if you

Good day everyone, I have a question. I have an N-scale layout. I am using Peco code 80 flex track with Peco Insu-frog switches. I started running feeder wires the other day and I found that is If

Thank you Allan!

That's right, Rob. Allan

Hi - I’m doing block detection for the first time and I’m gapping one rail per the BDL168 instructions. If a turnout will be its own block, then I’m assuming it needs a total of 3 gaps? One gap

I meant to also say, check my assumption with an ohm meter to be sure I am right. Allan

Interesting product.? I could have used a couple of them! Other than mechanically linking a couple of turnouts, I suspect that Walthers probably insulated the two turnouts from each other.? This

Does your track scheme call for the “straight through “ paths to have the same polarity? ie- no isolating gaps on the crossover path. Simply isolate the entire crossover section (8 rail gaps) and

I noticed Walthers is making single crossovers. What does one need to do to wire these for block detection and signaling? V. Henry
