neon555 Posted February 28, 2019 Author Posted February 28, 2019 Well that's all very interesting but doesn't really answer my question. I've found the wires are roughly the same size as the wires inside my alarm cable, so I'll just use those. Don't worry about it being cheap/unsafe and hurting users etc, it's a home device designed to protect just one cupboard, and from what I've found it's very popular. Of course if anyone else would like to recommend something else which isn't too expensive I'll happily take a look. The entire kit was around £70, so I was hardly expecting tip top parts. I'll post some pictures of the other bits if anyone wants to see? It came with: - The control module you see above - A plastic door release button - A bolt and clasp - A control panel (code/RFID/fingerprint) I've been having a little trouble getting it all to work, as the two manuals suggest different ways of connecting it, however I'm hoping to figure it out soon.

Doubt you would have the same view if it set fire to something, highly possible if something failed. Input is AC so no positive or negative... Alarm cable would make sense for everything on ELV side, unless you have data transmitted then you will likely need a TP cable. PSU's don't "emit" 3A they "supply". Each core of good quality alarm cable as a max current of 1A @ <50V max. Therefore, I would be using all the wires of an 8 core, if you are crazy and plan to pull a 3A load from this cheap supply for whatever reason. I'd think an extra 50 quid or so would have got something safe, that comes with a understandable manual? Although the text on the terminals seems fairly straight forward. I reckon the cheapest option would have been a mechanical solution on the cupboard. Quote

So in this kit what will it release ? I must have missed something? What's the bolt and clasp going to be used for? Quote
