booster ground

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Wiring for DCC : One Thread

Hello,

I have just read through about adding a booster and have a question about grounding.

I am using the DB150 booster from Digitrax, to configure as a booster you connect a jumper wire between config A and ground.

What I want to know is it advisable to connect the ground to other booster grounds as well as having the jumper wire connected.

Thanks Andy Mayes

Andy,

Yes, do connect all boosters together and then to a good earth ground. It will save you in the future if your trying to track down "ghosts".
