    Hi just wondering about wiring this alarm system, any advice would be great. I’m a sparks but haven’t done much on alarms. It’s for my own house, I’ve wired a single cable to each point in the house and back to the attic 

    downstairs 

    fronth door - inertia and contact 

    back door - inertia and contact 

    roof light - inertia 

    Sitting room - inertia and contact 

    porch - pir

    Sitting room - pir 

    kitchen - pir 

    upstairs 

    fronth bed - inertia and contact 

    master bed - inertia and contact 

    long bed - inertia and contact 

    bathroom - inertia and contact 

    relay for smoke detectors 


    first question is which wiring method is best 

    What are the advantages and disadvantages? 


    second question I was hoping to do each point on its own zone so when I use the app 

    I’ve more control on arming points . Is this a good idea ? 


    my device only has 10 zones so 

    do I need to buy and expansion pack or should I return the box for a different version with more zones has I haven’t used it yet? 


    any advice would be great

    The 10270 comes as standard with 10 zones but is expandable to add more zones by adding 10 zone expanders.

    Since you system is going to be in the attic you should be installing a Dual Tech PIR to protect the panel as its classed outside the perimeter in the attic but as its a self install this is up to yourself.

    You could use HKC Point ID PIRs and that will mean you can put the 3 PIRs into a point zone and ID them onto the system.

    Also if you did put 2 zones into the one zone on the panel that would mean you wouldn't need an expander if you do fit the Dual Tech motion in the attic.

    On the roof light, if its a Velux window you only install contacts on these.
