matt5595 Posted August 25, 2014 Author Share Posted August 25, 2014 look am only asking a few daft questions, alarms are in general piss easy, for a general systems you have 8 zones, each zone is a detector or door contact(reed switch). Most systems are normally closed meaning if a high resistance is detected an alarm activation occurs. Unlike door sensors detectors are also powered by 12V, and you wire the tamper through all detecotrs in a daisy chain method. Batteries are in most cases as little as 1.2Ah 12v and as high as 7Ah for larger panels You can also get more advanced detecors like volumetric detecors that work on volume aswell as just heat and sideways movement. You can get filters with detecors to stop false alarms from white light sources Sounders can be wired using a single 6 core cable or 2 x 4 core cables, connection include strobe, bell +, bell -, Tr-, V+ You can include a dialler system by hard wiring to two pins on the bt line, and the negative bell trigger on the external sounder to get it toi call out!

matt5595 Posted August 25, 2014 Author Share Posted August 25, 2014 do any of you guys know how to carry out a load assessment on a whole building and why it's important, or what phase rotation is?, or what the skin effect on a cable is?, or why it is important to balance phases on a distribution board?

matt5595 Posted August 25, 2014 Author Share Posted August 25, 2014 heres a good question would your security system be connected to an essential or non essential supply in a large commercial building like a hospital for instance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
