Hi

Im about to wire up a peco code 75 asymmetrical 3 way point but i am unsure where to put the feeds to the points. Im really confused now can anyone show me where i should put the feeds?

A google site search (see box at top right of page) will find you most of the threads where this has been asked before. You could start with this one from an earlier incarnation of RMweb.

Hi

Thanks for the reply im looking to know where to solder the power feed to the track which rail and where on the point? I have had a look through the search and was unable to locate the information i require? I have included the pic again and have put dots where i think the power feeds should go, am i correct in soldering them there?

Why don't you follow the Peco diagram?

Yes - that's the correct place. Same as for a standard point as this point is basically two Electrofrog points overlaid on each other. A strong recommendation (from my unfortunate experience with 3 of these) is to bond the stock rails to the blade rails as you would for any other Electrofrog point. All 3 of mine now have at least one extra dropper fitted after laying, when part of the point became electrically dead. I believe the web is already cut for you in the right places.
