Hi all,
I need to move a domestic house alarm controller from the back of a fitted wardrobe in a bedroom up into the attic.
There are several runs of alarm cable going to each of the PIRs that are tacked to the inside of the wardrobe - they will need cutting and extending into the attic. It is standard four core stranded alarm cable.
I am going to house the connections in this junction box, but what would you use to join the individual wires? I was thinking jelly crimps as I have hundreds but they are IDC so no good on the stranded wires.
Am I overthinking it? Shall I just use terminal blocks?
Thanks in advance.
