I am getting close to wiring up my Z4000 to run to loops of track on my layout. In looking at the instructions I can't seem to find the amps at which each individual circuit breaker trips. Do you know??

10 Amps each channel.
Also remember to have both handles in the DOWN position before powering up or the unit will NOT boot up. It is a safety feature and a good one.
Wow! 10 amps per channel. That's great. I should be fine. Thanks for the tip on the handles being in the off position.
Today I found out the accessory plugs on the Z4000 is only rated to 4 amps, Apparently I didn't read the manual carefully enough when I got it. I have had it for about 4 years. I use the 14 volt output for all my ross switches, lights and some few accessories.. Over that last week I have finally installed the balance of all the accessories I had. After installing a few more today the breaker flipped, was not even running any trains. Then I see 4 amp printed on the breaker button. Had to switch 14 volt accessory line to my KW.
To me is just seems low to limit it to only 4 amps.
