He thinks sticky pads and plasic ties meet the standards as 99% of his cables are fixed this way. No wonder we can't compete with these guys.

he must have a screw wacked through them into the joists imo? Sticky wont hold it up on the board surely 

 

Not that it makes it any better really!

We're you matching the intruder with fire cable from sparky ie the one above?

Our intruder cables are fixed with plaster board fixings with a p clip and a tie every 1m.

At least I can hold my head up on site as our bit is spot on.

Not been online for a LONG time, but i'm still here  :teehee:

 

This thread got me thinking of some galv conduit I installed for some lighting in a new room being created.  The alarm engineer decided to use my conduit as a convenient route.  I only spotted it when returning to site months later for different jobs!
