ZW transformers, polarized plugs and phasing to a MTH Z4000

Rob JohnstonOGR Forum Member

Had to replace my plug on a ZW, used a "keyed plug and phased it to my Z4000. So Am I now phased to all modern transformers, all Z4000s or just the one I phased it to?

For the record, I have a fuse box between the ZW and the track with 4 Airpax/Sensat PP11-0-10.0A-B-V "instantaneous" breakers and a TVS across each hot an common leg (yes I know that the ZW I have shares a common bus bar internally).

Given that there are manufacturing differences, factory errors, and user modifications, I would always recommend checking output phase when adding another transformer.
