Description
The NCE 5240056 PB105a DCC 5-Amp Power Booster is the PB105a — a 5-amp DCC booster with user-adjustable track voltage (10–16.5 V) for scale-appropriate operation.
What it does: Adjustable track voltage is the key differentiator vs. the DB5: factory-set at 14 V (good for HO), but you can dial down for N (~12 V) or up for O / large scale (~16 V). P519 power supply is now included with the PB105a. Compatible with most NCE DCC systems.
- Output current: 5 A
- Track voltage: Adjustable 10–16.5 V (factory set 14 V)
- Power supply: P519 included
- Compatible with: Most NCE DCC systems
- NCE part: 5240056 (Walthers 524-56)
Tip: If you run multi-scale (e.g. HO + N on the same layout with separate boosters), the PB105a's adjustable voltage lets you match each booster to its scale.
