I have already added cabling for the windows (see the bed 5 pic, it=92s the
cable with the knot in it =96 don=92t you love builders! Just as well the

rates are low!) and was hoping the window installer would add the sensors
but they say its either the sensor or the steel surround.   This is

as they have to drill through the surround to fit the window!  Any ideas

to add the sensors to the windows?

On the cable front in the end I have gone for FTP but stranded cable.

is about 6mm round so I can JUST get 4 cables in a 20mm conduit

Generally on cable I am amazed at the price difference of various cat5
brands, I bought some =93high-end=94 Nexans Lan mark 5 and some cheap

stuff from Amazon, interesting to see if there is any difference in its
performance, ease of installation.
