4WIRING CONNECTIONS
With the exception of the mains wiring all
interconnections should be made with multicore 7/.02 alarm cable.
Good wiring practice should be observed throughout the installation and the following
tips may prove useful.
Never run alarm cables parallel to mains cables, telephone cables or any
other cables that may be carrying inductive loads
Whenever you have to cross mains cables with alarm cables ensure that you
do so at 90°
Whenever possible wire the mains connection for the control panel back to
the consumer unit via a 3A unswitched fused spur.
Never tap into ring main circuits that have fridges/freezers on them.
Never tap into lighting circuits that have fluorescent lighting units on them.
