Blubus wiring - coops - 20-03-2017

Hi
Should blubus wiring be done with twisted pairs and shielded if it runs in ducting for 5mts along side the armoured power cable

Hi,

We always advise shielding the cable where possible, but the photocells won't be much of a problem, you can use stranded alarm cable, single core cable tends to break too easy, which can causes issues when setting up.
