Even wireless alarm system is easy to install than wired alarm system, wired alarm system is always installed at many locations. There are some reasons to install wired alarm system instead of wireless alarm system. The most important one is that the wired alarm is more reliable than wireless alarm. So, hybrid alarm control panel is available to have both wired and wireless alarm zones.
How to correctly install the wired detectors? The installation location selection and pipeline laying is the first and important part. Galvanized steel pipe should be used as laying material instead of PVC pipe. Metal junction box should be used for wire connection instead of plastic material. It can prevent damage and prevent burning. The cable pipeline should be laid at a sufficient height and hidden location to prevent damage.
Moreover, tamper-resistant switch wire should be connected to alarm panel. (two other wires). So, the wired detector will communicate with alarm panel 24 hours no matter at arm or disarm status. It will report missing or destroy situation if someone try to damage to remove it. Otherwise, people may destroy it at disarm status.
Why the installation measures are necessary even the alarm panel has tamper-resistant function?

If problem can not be found in short time, the security system will not work and keep people and property in risk.
