I think he was told on the lecy forum after a marathon post about his old equipment just to bin it and put in a £45 G4.

Anyone know much about them? Are they any good? It's a wireless runner blue series but looking under distribution (on the web) none in the uk! Im looking for a wired keypad for it (if they accept one?)

Not without changing to fibre.

As far as I'm aware (have been told from people above) plastic is out and will not be making an appearance. I also asked about the use of plastic plugs with the escape route fixings and this is fine.

and what's the other one? metal, fire enclosure and ?

As long as it's safe for continued services then fine, but all additions, alterations and new works must conform to current BS7671 so to avoid having lots of separate boxed with RCD'S in is sometimes cheaper and quicker to change CU to a new one. + they should be safer (& metal from 1st jan 2016)

Yes the older consumer units with fuse wire are fine but the problem is everything within especially a domestic property has to have RCD protection nowadays unless you go out of your way to eliminate the requirements for it. Data, you should not realy use T+E on a catenary wire system or outside as it has no UV protection.

It would be if the items were in the zones shown in the doc P. Remember its not the room its the zones. So a room containing a bath/shower is not notifiable but if you do any work within the zones around the bath/shower they are. e.g. So if you install a mirror light on the bathroom wall from an existing circuit and no cabling or accessories are in or go through the zones then it's not notifiable. People including most sparks think because its a bathroom its notifiable which is not the case. Op. you also need to brush up on your IP knowledge with regards zones.

It's only notifiable within the zones (not the room) shown in the approved doc P. As your room is only a toilet and wash basin then crack on and use common sense with placement.

If you look down his page, the blue cat5e clipped on the front of someone's house (could be his) made me laugh, blends in very well.

You should have checked what the manufacture of the cable and staple have to say first.

Not sure i have read that right but that is what indemnity is for when you advise/design something wrong whether you install or not.

They pay for the day if there kit works or not.Yes quals just like all the so called sparky muppets with them! Been to job today where so called professional installed new sockets and couldn't of got it any more wrong. Qualifications yes if done properly and no fast track way like electrical & plumbing. License would be a better way, I wish electrical would.

I know what you are saying. Customers risk he is just paying for labour. Keep all that in stock if needed.

Travel it, as it's only down the road. As I don't know anything about the job, allowing 2day to make sure the jobs done right is the way forward.

If your still stuck, It should take two days at £250 per day (£500) provided you have power and telephone points in panel position. Cables hidden where possible otherwise it will be clipped/stapled or trunking. Your system will be fully programmed for day and night use. The earliest we could get to you would be 2weeks.

Insurance is tailored to you and your needs. You will find most (If not all) of the mainstream ones will not insure for alarm installers as I found out. The SSAIB and i'm sure NSI will to, can give you some numbers to ring around (SSAIB gave me my current insures number BucklandHarvester) Mat

Ha ha as I said in post #3 They are a bugger to get the mag in the correct place.

Ha ha

I just wish he would use the Quote button.

All your problems will be solved when you get your front door contact to work. your impaqs will need to get the magnet in the right place near the top.

Are you sure its not a burger van in the car park!! Sell you a burger while clamping your car
