24v dc,would you cable these in 6 core alarm cable

Maybe. What is the current of the things, and what is the mode of operation? The last of this soft of thing we fitted was wired in FP200.

Yea that’s what I thought,Fp,but wired in alarm cable.
They are released from a FA relay.the loading of these 90ma nominal current

Why would you want to connect them with alarm grade cable, seems rather non conventional.

 

[cliffed]

Agree,they are already installed,cabled with alarm cable.

Are they using these cables as part of the fire alarm auxiliary control.

Are they using these cables as part of the fire alarm auxiliary control.

They supply power to the door opening,through a fire alarm relay.
24 v dc from a separate psu,through relay to door.
It’s not an auxiliary contact
