Atlas 205 Connector
Posted by Savoy_Ed on Monday, April 30, 2012 4:40 PM

How do you wire an Atlas 205 Connector to three dead(3-rail) track sours?  I have an insulated pin in the center rail of all three spurs.  Now, how do I wire the Atals 205 Connector to each spur and then to the transformer?

Hi Savoy_Ed,

 

To control each block with a 205 switch. Connect the hot wire from the power transformer to the lower side terminal connection (either side can be connected) on the 205. Then run a wire from the top right terminal for each switch to the spur track. (center rail) you want to control.
