If I wanted to replace the circuit board, are they available as a spare part - I can't find any supplier on the internet?
How do I isolate the power to the board without the SAB sounding? Which I would want to do if I fitted a new pcb or board.
If I fitted a new panel given that all the wires are in place are there any major snags? What would be the most difficult bit? Would I need to replace the keypad or are they all interchangeable?

That control unit is discontinued, but can be replaced for a more modern panel.
You cannot, the only way to disable the SAB is to get a ladder up to it.
You would need to replace the keypad if you replaced the panel for a different model.

My wife says it would be simpler to just let the bell ring on the rare times there is a powercut. Lots of other alarms go off when this happens anyway.

This is one of the reasons why people have started to ignore alarm systems!
If your alarm goes off in a power cut there is something wrong and requires servicing.

If you don't get it repaired it is possible that...
Upon a break-in it will be ignored and/or the environment agency will call an approved engineer to shut it up.
They will leave the bill for you and then demand you repair/upgrade/remove the system.
