All,
I need some help. I want to use 2x power outputs of my modern ZW, mainly AU and DU, to supply power to my 4x power blocks. The layout consists for track blocks: 1) an o36 loop, 2) an o48 loop, 3) a siding on the outside of the o48 loop, 4) a siding inside of the o36 loop. Each of these track blocks have a corresponding power block.
I would like to be able to take input AU into Comm-1 and DU into Comm-2. Then wire the outputs as follows: #1 = 1 [from above], #2 = 2, #3 = 3, #4 = 4, #5 = 1, #6 = 2, #7 = 3, #8 = 4. This way I can supply power to any track block from either AU or DU.
My question is:
1) If the BPC2 output #1 relay is shut and BPC2 output #5 relay is open then BPC output relay #5 will see unto 18VAC across the backside of the relay. Will this damage the BPC2?
Thoughts?
