Hi
I need to disconnect and extend an original hard wired doorbell and re site to the outside of a porch. It’s twin core and I was going to simply wire the two cables through a junction block and extend.
I purchased a reel of bell wire to use but noticed the core size is quite different to the old. The old cable I measured as 0.7mm as opposed to the 0.5mm purchased.
Is the simple extension through a block ok..? Assuming I’ll need the same size wire, yes?
Thanks in advance
Please Excuse my stupidity
