Question Scalextric powerbase information needed
#10

Hello Jeremy,
The short-circuit detection must be in the power-supply that you are using. 

I just tried the only Hornby AC plug-pack that I have (C912) and with that plugged in the power-base a short-cut simply shorts out the power and it restored again when the the short-circuit was removed (screwdriver across the rails).
The green components that Andy mentioned are marked as 2A224J  and a quick Google shows them as 220 Nano Farad capacitors.  

I thought I had a more recent Hornby plug-pack but cannot find it. I think I saved the cable and re-cycled the actual unit.
