Hi
I'm renovating my house and want to install a new hard wire bell where no bell currently exists. I want to install the mains transformer (or whatever it is called) in a cloackroom cupboard about 6m of cable length, away from the bell button.
From the transformer I then want to install a total of 3 bell sounders (we have a larger than average home). The ground floor rear utility room bell sounder will be about 12-15m cable metres away from the transformer, approx the same distance for the 1st floor sounder too. For both of these sounders, the cable will have to bend and travel in many different directions.
1. Could someone please spec out the most appropriate bell wire to select taking into account the length of cable I will need for each floor and any loss of power due to the length?
2. What considerations I should give to the setup and recommend a good make and power mains adaptor I should buy?
Thanks.
