datadiffusion Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 What I sometimes do is connect the 0V to the nearest earth on a socket or light at the keypad end, then back at the panel connect the earth to 0V. Result - much lower resistance!* *OP please do not do this. We recommend you check all connections and replace any short/easily accessible runs with the correct alarm cable.

matthew.brough Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Cowboy. You know full well that 4mm t&e is the recommended cable of true professionals on here. Essex installers use fp200 Quote www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

datadiffusion Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 (edited) I've seen white coax passed off as FP to a gullible landlord. Well, I'm saying that. Either way there was a simpleton at one end of the contract...

rajbps Posted July 5, 2014 Author Share Posted July 5, 2014 Hi everyone thanks for all the replies. I have got the system rewired with 8 core alarm cable. Unfortunately again same zone 1 , 2 , 3 tamper . I get a meter tomorrow and try again. Can anyone tell me what volts should i get on the tamper loop. , Raj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al-yeti Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 If you loop out the tamp terminal does fault clear? Then what have you set as the unused zones? Have you got the global tamper running via the keypad? Easier to use fsl and struggle a little with resistors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
