RichL Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 OP, I think panel choice is the most important thing here. A good quality panel will not be unduly bothered by induced AC, whereas a cheap one will be FAing regularly even with an ACT1313 fitted. Originally said by Charles Babbage On two occasions I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.

jphilweybr Posted January 21, 2013 Author Share Posted January 21, 2013 Guys, thank you all VERY much. Things are a lot clearer now, and I will follow your suggestions. Thanks too for the reminder about safe zones. I think the safe zone concept has been in the Regs for a long time so the existing installation probably didn't comply when it was put in. As luck would have it, there are lots of rotten floorboards around, so I'll aim to get all my cabling below the new ones with mechanical protection and some warning tape above. Do ELV cables also have to be in safe zones? My guidance book makes no distinction. A pity, because with the mains below and the alarm cables above the floorboards, I would also have some neat physical separation. As to my supplementary question about running telehone cable with alarm cables, would anyone care to comment> Thanks again.

Oxo Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Keep them apart too. Put a meter on a phone line and watch the AC jump when its called.
