4. Operations with the Transformer
Model railroad with one transformer: Plug the power cord into a wall outlet.
Model railroad with several transformers: Plug the power cords for the transformers
into a power strip and plug the power cord for the latter into a wall outlet. If you have
a power strip with an on/off switch, turn this on after having carried out the steps
above.
4.1 Short Circuit or Overload on a Transformer
Overload protection
A built-in thermal switch protects the Transformer from damage in case of an overload
or a short circuit. Locomotives on the layout will come to a stop, accessories cannot
be operated and all lamps connected to the Transformer will go out.
The following procedure is recommended:
1. Unplug the power cords for all transformers from their outlets.
2. Look for the cause of the short circuit on the layout and correct it.
3. After about 1 minute the thermal switch will go back to being on. After this
amount of time has passed, all Transformers can be placed in operation
again.
If the Transformer should shut off again and you are unable to locate a short
circuit, then the Transformer is overloaded. In this case the number of users
connected to the Transformer must be reduced.
Important: If a transformer is used to power a multi-train central electronic circuit
(Control Unit, Mobile Station, Central Station, etc.), this central electronic circuit will
turn the power supply off in the event of a short circuit. For this situation, follow the
directions given in the instructions for the operating system in use.
