  • Here's everything you need to know when wiring up fire alarms to pull stations without a fire alarm control panel. This step-by-step 'how-to' video with diagrams will answer all the questions I commonly receive about hooking up fire alarms.
    Note: I am not an electrician or professionally certified to install these systems. If you are lost on any of these topics, I always recommend seeking help from an electrician or someone with professional qualifications. This video is not intended to be used as a guide for installing fire alarm technology for real life safety. This video was created for fire alarm collectors using these alarms at home for hobby purposes. I am not responsible for your actions. Please be safe when using electricity, even if it is low voltage.

    21 minutes ago and this is already popular. Way better than I have ever seen. Now I know how to operate a pull station and what alarms are the loudest and most annoying. Great job!

    This is really neat! Thanks for making this video, as it’s not _just_ a tutorial for fire alarm wiring; it’s also a basic electric circuit tutorial, which I’m sure will help out a LOT of people who aren’t familiar with how electric circuits work!

    (+) in pull station -> (-) in alarm

    Yo! Great video! Ive been interested in doing this for a little while but i would like to use the adaptor. The only thing is i cant find one with wire ends. Do i just chop off the end part to get those? Thanks!

    • @SERSafety
      @SERSafety  10 місяців тому +3

      Yes, you can cut off the piece on the end and then strip down the two wires. Of course, make sure it's unplugged when you do so, the right kind of adapter, and that you don't need it for anything else!

      That’s why I had to start collecting as soon as possible, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t get good alarms for a decent price because there are still some out there, you just have to find them
