Hi All
I am planning on running the wiring for a home alarm system in the near future as the floorboards are lifted ceilings have been removed for a home refurb.
I plan on running the wires then have someone connect and configure the alarm for me.
I will have 4 x PIR and 2 x door contact, 1 bellbox plus keypad. Main control panel is to be housed under the stairs.
Question - do I run a separate wire from where the control panel will be housed to each PIR/contact/keypad?
As far as I know,this would give me separate zones which is fine but does anything need to be connected in series?
I was just planning on running 8 cables (4 PIR, 2 contacts, 1 bellbox, 1 keypad) from where the control panel will be to each endpoint.
TIA
