Hi Franklyn,
Welcome to the forum ........... if you are more specific as to how and where you intend to install it on the layout i'm sure you will get more help, i have the N gauge version of the atlas Turntable and have the motor unit to go with it running it off a DC power supply for turntable power only as it is in a DCC layout,
Are you running DC or DCC ?

It will be the final stop on a line coming off several other interconnecting ones.
It is an HO Atlas motorized. Am using 100 guage rail throughout. Will be DC operated.
Am just "into" wiring and would like to avoid some craziness in doing so. I am an
advanced beginning- still working with toggle switches & rotaries from 20 yrs ago! Thanks.

Hi Franklyn,

You will be busy working out polarity then on DC mine is on DCC and an auto reversing module will look after it, with you using the Atlas turntable does this mean it is to be an American layout ?
