Cheers electric will! I also agree with your point! Nadhud, if you're an apprentice doing a foreigner/homer/favour for a mate, just beware that worst case scenario is you have a soap on a rope, and you can forget the forums , the only thing you'll be 'posting' is a letter home from her majestys pleasure!! Just be careful mate, I am not in anyway doubting your ability or competence, if you ain't sure, ask someone who knows to SHOW YOU how, not explain!
 
Before you start trying to tell me that this is supposed to be a help forum and I'm not helping, I generally wire smoke detectors in the usual way, and that's that.

.....................or, maybe i don't wire them and just fix them up so they look like they're wired to save cash + wire to gubby with on the side muahahaha
 
I don't understand... Wiring smoke detectors using 2x twin instead of 3 core because you 'ran out' sounds like a DIYers solution.

"I had bills to pay so I couldn't take time off work to go to college"
"The customer didn't want the floorboards lifted so I ran the socket off the lighting circuit"
"The customer was on a tight budget so I ran the cables diagonally to save cable"
"I ran out of 2.5mm so I wired the sockets in bell wire"
 
its simplicy just feed the first tec with twe then any further/onward ones with 3core
the earths dont actually do anything but must be terminated into each tec
