peco switches

The Peco switch machines take a bit of getting used to when wiring - basically what you have to do is add a short wire from one coil to the other, and a longer wire on the same side - this is your common return. On the other side you use one long wire from each coil to the two output pins of your electrical switch (if you're using Peco's lever switches, the outer pins/terminals are the output ones). The common return and centre terminal of the electrical switch (again, assuming Peco lever switches here though it would be the same on momentary-contact toggle switches) hook to the 16v AC output of the power supply. Hope this is of help!
