You maybe lucky and it's just a couple of sealed lead acid batteries of the same voltage and dimensions that you need to replace, for now.

Your unlikely able to fix it yourself. The comms module will need disabling in the engineers menu. You either need to get ADT to remove it or find an engineer that works on Visonic to remove it. Bear in mind support for ADT Visonic maybe limited when it comes to parts, ADT models are not compatible with standard Visonic if you need replacements.

I think they aim for bigger fish with less paperwork.

There wouldn't be anything stopping you insuring something twice no, insurance will just take your money like they do. I mean you can be insured for a vehicle your not entitled to drive, until you have a bump and they refuse to pay saying your not insured. That doesn't make it allowed by the insurance company, they don't want to be in a situation where there is an argument between second parties who sorts out the first party, so there will be a caveat for this. As I say that's how it was explained to me by a broker.

Some policies allow you TPO on other vehicles but this is different. There aren't two vehicles to have permission for TPO on the other.

Trade vehicle insurance works differently it's covered under "road risk" which means they are covered for vehicles in there possession, it's like a temporary flexible policy. It's difficult to get road risk only as people where faking being in the automotive trade for it, so they normally ask for combined trade insurance (road risk + business) Hire companies have a similar scheme.

This is not what I was told by an insurance broker. It becomes an issue when a third party comes to claim against you as to which insurance company is liable, even if you consider the policies purposes don't overlap.

I suppose it's possible that your employer could go bandit and say you where not given permission to drive the vehicle therefore you would be liable unless you have some document stating otherwise. MOT, vehicle condition and vehicle tax I would say are drivers responsibility to make sure they are in order, insurance is more a split issue as you wouldn't be able to check without the policy documents which are likely for the fleet. Vehicle would technically be insured twice which isn't allowed AFAIK

There is also another thread more on your specific topic over in the trade forums, we discussed this situation. As an employee it would be the companies responsibility (director) to make sure your company vehicle is insured etc. It would be upto the T&Cs of the insurance company which you wouldn't know about being an employee. Valid point about PL insurance tho.

Being NSI Gold goes way beyond how tidy the wiring is in the panel. that's likely down to one engineer and their untidy workmanship. There is a whole company, employees. training, testing, maintenance and audit trail behind that job.

Do you need it, can it not be disabled, if your using the terminals? It's been ages since I seen one. Repurposing a reed from something else maybe hit and miss they are fragile.

Any modules after 2014 where fine to take straight of a circuit >32A circuit as per the instructions. https://www.mkelectric.com/Documents/English/EN%20MK%20Installation%20Manuals/Wiring%20Devices/Logic%20Plus/50078098A%20-%20MK%20USB%20Charger%20Installation%20Manual.pdf Another thing to note all these devices with USB's built in have a 2 year warranty, even for MK. Whereas other standard outlets are either 10 year or limited lifetime.

No the Euro modules

Pretty sure they are SCB's on that age Bentley. Maybe even positive trigger? I would be checking the panel and it's outputs respond correctly to an alarm activation with a meter before even considering the ladders.

They are a solid built thing and give very little trouble, that's why relatively there are still a good few Bentley panels about. Still not helpful if you never have it serviced and it fails to operate in a break in.

It's very old and obsolete, finding someone that would support it is unlikely. It's probably older than a lot of peoples engineering staff. Feel free to ask away, if you have some specific questions.

Fully agree with above, you do have to consider the asymptomatic problem too, but it may lower the risk. I could see a change in the design of some systems, maybe considering REX PIRs and more contact free interactions with all devices used by multiple people.

From what I gathered they released early sample modules that didn't conform to BS only IEC, they had to be supplied from a 3A FCU. The current models conform to all standards required and you can wire them straight from the circuit with a B or C upto 32A

That's how you would do it yes (I would do this as standard myself), they have a small internal speaker mounted behind the PCB but wired into terminals on the PCB. You need to find a suitable extension speaker and take an alarm cable from the controls to that location. Something like a CQR Alto 16Ohm Speaker would do.

Part set bell delay would likely be the option your looking for. Double knock is never a great idea, even more so with wireless when they may not activate again for a while.

I usually fit the Elites so GDB-0001 but if it's a quad then it's better than non-quad, which I would never fit. Beam Pair would be excessive IMO, but you could beam pair with the existing instead of buying two. Still think I wouldn't be throwing money at it until I have an idea what the issue is first.

You never know there maybe wireless interference but you have to start somewhere and you have no evidence of that. PIR's cannot detect through solid objects whereas the microwave part of a DT can. Your looking for something that could cause a sudden change in temperature of >5C within the 90 viewing angle of the passive.

Yer I wouldn't use any of the wireless kits apart from 0005 on the odd occasion it has most of what I need. Agree with above, looks like the most sensible position, I'd swap it with one from another room for now. If the fault reoccurs in the same room swap for a quad or possibly DT.
