  1. I would not dare issue one to an employee, The odd time I used a telescopic ladder I'm shaking like a shitting dog.... & I've use the #palletofdoom
  2. I like yellow / black for alarm circuits...... cause it reminds me of a wasp!
  3. no, the alarm pair should be red & yellow -positive colours for the positive loop The tamper loop should be blue & black - negative colours for the negative loop the new fangled powered devices should be powered by white + & green - however we don't do any of the above !
  4. shock sensors have a 1st to latch, in these primitive pre mobile phone days... alarm men used to drill a little hole in the cabinet & fit a push to break switch which removed power to the vipers making them reset.... I recommend getting a proper alarm co. to fit a proper alarm ?
  5. personally never seen one, however alarms... 30+ yr old controls ain't uncommon
  6. remove mains power before opening lid, remove battery within metal endstation, any self contained bell (internal or external) will ring for 20mins if it has a cut out timer or until the battery is flat if it does not.... now sod off...... ?
  7. good old AMCO, the outside bow will start to ring (nothing wired on the panel) the panel is also wired grey neutral, brown earth, black live !
  8. there's is the visual & aubile warning on the melcom ?
  9. cool, all you need to do is get in touch https://www.bsigroup.com/ & ask they rewrite the standards for you is he's coming for free...... or are you using Robin Bastard Electrical ?
  10. A scam would be asking £198.00+vat, doing the work then charging £398.00+vat I often say to people when they moan about costs.....if you don't want it, can't afford, or just don't like the price. Don't have it.
  11. who'd have thought a jobbing electrician charge less than multi national company with 24hr call centre ? ADT, grand + over 3 yrs ? Fiat 500 from 20k, Fiat or the Fiat dealer is unlikely to help a private person do anything with their own car ??
  12. Google the name of your alarm installer- was the 1st result the above ?
  13. I'd say wireless sensor issues + issues with texecom smartcom ? I'd also say unless you have proper alarm signalling as well an app your probably not correctly insured ?
  14. I believer glaciers move quicker than some of our hobbyists
  15. PM your address & I send a scabby rkp nah, I maybe 40 new 'uns on the shelf !
  16. premier 168, (not elite) scabby keypad or something nr retail ?
  17. Paradox was once advertised in the UK... there are European distributors but I always assumed its was for the US market I've never seen one on the wall
