October 5, 200520 yr comment_70973 Hullo My four-year-old pulled the wire out of a panic button while we were decorating, and being an electro-dunderhead I am not sure how it should go back in. The other panic button has blue and green wires attached to the circuit, with red, yellow and black unconnected. But the detached button has no green wire - could anyone tell me how it should be re-connected. If you can't, a certain four-year-old will have his pocket money stopped for the next 15 years until he has paid for it!

October 5, 200520 yr comment_70974 It could be that the green wire has snapped further back in the cable. Either that, or every detector is wired differently. To find out how it's wired you need to access the panel and find out which wire it is and follow the colours used there, which being a "electro-dunderhead", might not be wise!

October 20, 200520 yr comment_72902 I would have to agree with lurch and it is most likely to be wired normally closed good luck Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/7692-problem-with-veritas-r8-panic-button/#findComment-72902 Share on other sites Share on LinkedIn Share on X Share on Facebook {lang="reddit_text" Share via email Share on Pinterest More sharing options...
