Wiring Schematic
with Reversing Switches - by
Professor Motor
The reversing switches are the double pole
double throw guys illustrated by their 6 contacts in the rectangles on the right
side of this schematic. If you are looking for these types of switches, we
offer heavy duty 16 amp ones by the way. The criss-cross things on the
switches are jumpers connecting the opposite corners of the switch terminals
together. You can use bare copper wire for those if careful not to let
them touch and short out against anything as they jump across from one corner to
another. If adding in power taps to multiple points on the track, those
need to be connected in between the switch and the track.
This schematic differs from a more
conventional positive track wiring schematic in that the normal
"ground" side common wire for the track wires themselves is no longer
common, but instead independent going through the switch for each lane.
