Yes thanks Dave. No probs (touch wood) so far. I'm glad it's done and dusted and I feel much more secure. I just want to add a relay for switching on a floodlight to one of the programmable outputs. Then I'm all finished.

cheers lads!

As for feeding mains to a panel with alarm cable-yikes! I had that cables twisted together and sleeved with outer sheath too. All my joints are soldered and heatshrinked now :yes:

I know what you mean. I ripped our old alarm system out a few months back and replaced the lot with decent equipment and cable. The list of dodgy stuff I found is pretty long. Fused spur (located under the floorboards) had a 13 amp fuse in it, AUX fuse linked out, no earth sleeving, multiple detectors on one zone, cables chased into walls with only a thin covering of filler, wires twisted together and insulated with white alarm cable insulation, no tamper, cables run underneath carpets, SAB link not cut, not a single cable clipped anywhere, mains supply to panel run with alarm cables, not a twisted pair in sight, no use of cables ties/general panel untidyness  He works for BT now.

BT will love him, sounds like a top spec install for them.
