What's in the loop interface box?

[MRD]

We need an AMB loop interface box and even a none AMB one is £70+pp so we're toying with the idea of making one, BUT we don't know whats inside one, lol. Does anyone know whats inside? .

Can't help you with what's in interface box.

But this is what we use for the outdoor track.

It's buried under the track (permanently connected to the loop) sealed in a tub. Been like that for the last year and works fine.

Thats the one we were looking at but I'm pretty sure there isn't £70 worth of components in that thing. If it uses normal components it could be made for a fraction of that, its just a case of knowing what they are .
