Reply to "ZW-L and track voltage"

cjack posted:

The way I read the original post was that the ZW-L is set to 18 vac and the track voltage where all the cars and engine are droops down to 14 vac. So that would be a feeder issue to the tracks and possibly track connection issues.

yeah, I got it, but the ZW-L is a different animal. Just asking...measure the track voltage when it's running

I agree, 18 gauge speaker wire could be a problem. it should handle 7-10amps

He could be around 8 amps - estimate 2.5 per engine with smoke on and 6 lighted cars at 3 amps
