Hello everyone, first post coming up...
Please could someone be kind enough to give me some advice??
I have recently bought a Comelit Intercom / Keypad for my driveway gates.
I have read the installation instructions and wiring diagram for the system and being an Engineer and keen DIY’er I don’t have a problem in physically installing the hardware and cabling the system up from the gates to the house.
My two questions are, and it’s not clear in the wiring diagrams,
1.Where do you site the power transformer?? I’m guessing that it’s in the house somewhere? And,
2.For ease of switching on and off, can I take the power from a wall socket? If so I could place the transformer under the floor boards near an airbrick, then run the power up to a nearby plug socket, and use the airbrick for the external cables.
This is a list of the equipment I am using:-
Comelit Door Entry Phone System:
1x entry phones (ART 2402w)
1x power supplier (ART 1538)
1x surface mounted housing (ART 3316/3)
1x frame (ART 3311/3g)
1x power code module (ART 3328)
1x speaker unit (ART 1600)
1x module prepared for speaker unit (ART 3320/0)
1x 4 module push button (ART 3322/4)
I appreciate any guidance anyone may be able to offer…
