Driving with a Booster
If power consumption exceeds 5 A,
the section is overloaded and must be
divided.
Warning: The booster and the Z21 XL
Series must not be operated with the same
transformer or AC adaptor!
On the Z21 XL series, use only Z21 XL
series boosters, such as the 10869 - Z21
XL BOOSTER.

3. Driving with a Booster
When your system turns off frequently without a loco or coach having derailed or in the absence of a wiring
error, as a rule this suggests an overload due too many power consumers. In this case, a Z21 XL BOOSTER (Art.
No. 10869) which supplies extra power to the layout will help.
Installation is simple:
▶ Subdivide your system into two supply sections having approximately the same power consump-tion.
Separate the tracks on both sides.
More than 20 Z21 XL BOOSTERS can be connected to the Z-CAN. In this way, very large systems can also be
supplied.
