Johnny Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 In the middle of a large panel upgrade from Galaxy 500 to PX 500, noticed on the spec today a small note saying to connect existing foil in a certain area. The foil is on wired glass and its just one strip to point to point with no JB, i will get some info on this tomorrow but in the meantime anyone have any thoughts.

james.wilson Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 its fine assuming it complies to 4737 as under pd6662 you still use 4737 for things where no adopted en exists. ie foil securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.

Johnny Yup. It isn't grade three. In the old language, you'd have called it single pole, and the cable would have just bee tacked round the window, picking up the foil running across it. The best you're going to do with that is make sure it's converted to EOL, and trouble monitored too, as per one run of cable - not sure even that would allow complinace with grade 3. Bill.

james.wilson Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Grading doesnt come into it. Yu cant grade it as there is no en for foil.

Guest old-hand Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Just remember to note it as such on the spec.

Only making sure the OP is aware, some fail to see this and leave bottoms open to abuse.

Amps Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 I would of thought a Grade 3 system can only have Grade 3 equipment! So the system is now Grade 3 with old/other bits sounds a bit rough imo.
