HADES
4. Connections
There are terminal strips soldered to basic and track modules which are used to insert and
screw on the connecting cables.
Connection cables
The use of stranded wire is recommended for the connections. Stranded wires consist of
several thin individual wires and are therefore more flexible than rigid wires with the same
copper cross-section.
Connection to
Recommended cross-section
Power supply, tracks and turnouts
> 0.25 mm²
Push-buttons, switches, LEDs
> 0.04 mm²

Voltage supply for HADES. The polarity of the connections is of no
importance.
Do not use
the (analogue) driving transformer or the transformer
supplying the digital system!
