General DCC
Transformer Information
There
are many transformers and power packs that can supply the input power for
Digitrax boosters & command stations. Most regular DC train control
packs do not have enough power to supply the full power potential of the a
5 or 8 amp booster, since they were designed to only run 1 locomotive in a
blocked system. To get the full power potential you may hook up a suitable
alternative transformer. Check with your local Digitrax dealer to see which
transformers he has available.
Be very careful
when you hook up your transformer to be sure that you do not create a shock
or fire hazard.
Many modelers have safely hooked up line transformers when creating their
own conventional DC throttles, from one of the many "do it
yourself" project articles. If
you are not comfortable with the 110Volt input wiring, we strongly suggest
you consult with an electrician.
1) Most important is
to be sure the 110V input voltage is safely isolated from the low voltage
secondary of the transformer. A properly installed safety ground will ensure
that the layout cannot become a shock hazard if there is mis-wiring or
insulation failure.
2) You must protect
the primary and secondary windings of the transformer from overload. A
typical primary protection would be a 1 amp "slow-blow" fuse (in
an appropriate fuse holder) wired in the primary line circuit. For the secondary we recommend a circuit breaker rated no larger
than the minimum of either the transformer secondary current rating or the
booster's output current rating (typically 5 or 8 amps).
