can you install alarm with out resisters

Yes you can, many panels (the Texecom Veritas for example) can be programmed for use with double pole wiring so no resistors required.

FSL wiring with resistors is far more secure though and you only need a 4 core cable to a PIR instead of a 6, also with maby panels you get more diagnostic information at the panel by using FSL wiring.

Some detectors now come with built in resistors so you don't need the ones supplied with the panels. You just select the value of the apropriate resistor by selecting either a switch or a link within the detectors themselves so make sure you select the correct values and ckeck the readings with a meter as you cant believe everything you read.

Practice in the morning, practice at night. Practice in the evening, until you get it right.

Only make sure you are practising in the right way at the right time for it.
