How to build your own electronic turnout switch. I you understand how it works let me know. e.g. do you plug in the LEds or are they on the board itself? http://tinyurl.com/ndh86q _________________ Get off the line Bobby! http://s160.photobucket.com/albums/t184/Poliss_album/

Sort of , now you will be confused .....if it was on the mains input side of the transformer then its earth , as this is connected to the outer case ,,, if its on the output side of the transformer then its called ground ..
