Reply to "high current"

That seems to be a violation of Ohm's law - lower voltage should yield less current, not more....

Does the Z4000 have a separate breaker for the 10V circuit, or some other feature that would cause breaker to trip at a lower current from the 10V circuit?

Wouldn't that be for a resistive load only?  Many times when testing trains on the bench with a Z, at lower voltage, the current is higher.  If there is a power consumption, higher voltage requires, less current to = same power.  G
