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?

Also looking at it again . it looks like what they have marked as negative power is what we would call ground

Now I'm confused. I thought what they call ground, we call earth.

Better calling ground .......... negative saves a lot of confusion

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 ..
