Many thank`s

Perfectly OK.

yep thats fine thats the point of wireless to enable you to keep the wiring to a min i did see a post the other day that said to use red fp 200 or similar to comply with fire alarm regs

Its probably better to have it on two seperate circuits cabling must be to BS 5839.

Thank`s for the replies.
acat can you elaborate on cable being to BS5839?
If i was to take a feed to each detector are you saying that this should be different from standard twin and cpc?

Not in a domestic situation.

T&E is fine.
