Pizz tayker

A nice card?

I have a pair of those, oddly enough found them on top of an old fire panel!

Ooh Mr high tech! Mind you my Chinese £50 one bought almost for fun actually works ok...

True....

Norm

Or very heavily breathed in and never cleaned?

Thought norm worked for the working mans evian supplier now?

Yup, and if the cable gets damaged, the alarm will be sure to inform you!

Yeah thought that except customer says they got to choose the kitchen but were never offered an alarm Maybe some Co they had lined up pulled out Oh and there is a no bellbox covenant on the whole estate, oops!!

Sized up a job this week where no wiring in a new build but a spur on a dedicated circuit marked alarm. Must have been for a wireless system but not even a keypad wire. Odd.

Im qual but not part p, as I try to avoid panels in bathrooms and Sheds! And non domestic isnt under the scheme as we all know. All paperwork using iet model forms.

There is absolutely no requirement for any additional fused spur being added to a ring circuit or lighting circuit to be doneby a Part P bod. But it should be a competent person and should be certificated for the tests that were done. Obvious exceptions would be; Domestics in a Bathroom or when any part of the cable runs outdoors with a junction box also being outside Connecting direct to the CU and prob lots of others....

I tried that but then all my customers ended up at ADT...

Op, if you're still reading this, he's bang on the money. Posters on here sometimes say the trade people on here are out to rip people off, overcharge, spec kit that's 'over the top' etc... The truth is, Yale is tat, plain and simple. You'd get the same level of protection going onto ebay and buying two dummy sounders from someone like Elmdene or Pyronix, or even a broken Yale just for the bellboxes. There is no decent system at £160, and the ones there are, are no better than a dummy. Basically, I appreciate you might not have £500-700 - so please don't waste £160!

First review on Screwfix - It's fine if you're happy that with this system, all the sensors are usually on 'entry/exit' so all someone needs to do is come in and rip the control panel off the wall, the outside siren will never go off and you'll never get the phone call saying you've been burgled. If you're definitely up for DIY, I would ask yourself if it really has to be wireless or can you get some small alarm cables in?

Op, can I ask how much you were due to spend on the Yale kit? It's not a trick, I'm just interested as a starting point.

It depends on the model - Rokonet has been Risco for some time now and a bit lazy if they haven't updated their info by now. I have no experience of the cheaper models but if it's the I-Wise quad PIR then I'd say go for it. The Texecom Premier is a good system. As Norm, you can save yourself £200 now which I guarantee you'll have to pay back over the next 2 years in extra servicing costs, which can't be avoided if they relate to detector batteries.

Speaker fuse ok? Resistance of the wiring to the speaker, measured at the panel when shorted at the far end = ?

I had an e-line DT operating through a metal (perforated style) shutter last week. Wasn't expecting that.

I'd forgotten him. Bet he hasn't forgotten you though H...

Aw. Boring!
