Turnout switch module

Turnout switch module

Enables switches to be connected without any need for soldering. Power is supplied through the fitted leads and each switch is automatically connected when fitted. Simply push the button on the front to open the holes, and feed in the bare wires from the turnout motor - no soldering or other fixing required. The PL-51 allows the PL-50 module to be extended to any size required.

• PL-51 Turnout Switch Module add on

Unless you are running clockwork or live-steam trains on your layout, electricity plays a major part in keeping the trains running. You may also have accessories like signals or lights that run on electricity, so it is inevitable that you are likely to need a switch or two! This product from Peco makes it easy to group PL-26 switches neatly adjacent to each other. Not only are they neatly grouped together, but there is no soldering required to connect them up! Simply slot the PL-26 switches in place and connect by inserting the wires to the point motors in the relevant holes in the PL-50. Don’t forget the common return needs to be connected to the centre hole, marked in green. The wires are retained by releasing the green tab, which must be depressed when inserting a wire. You can add further PL26 switches by extending the module using PL-51 units to create larger PL-26 switch arrays. Note that the PL-50 and PL-51 do NOT include the actual switches themselves.
