@SteveMa posted:Oman, let me understand you.....from the terminal block we would run many power feeds to the same loop or multiple loops of track. You are saying it is required to separate each power feed from another even if they are just X number of feet or connections from the other one in the same loop, going back to the same terminal block? I get the idea of the DCS signal wants to see the same distance from out and back so this forces the signal to go back the same power feed instead of leaking to the next? Seems I have heard conflicting but appreciate the definitive answer
Yes, so you do want power blocks, although you don't need to electrically switch them. Each block has it's own power feed. Some people have had success with buss wiring, but some have not. So, may as well do what's recommended.
