When running new wirring do you need a metal gang box for the first alarm connection in order to connect the bare ground wire on #14-2 romex?

I haven't purchased this yet, but if there is no ground wire connection on the unit, then you just connect the ground wires from the incoming cable and outgoing cable together in a plastic box. If you do use a metal box, then you should run a pigtail ground wire to a grounding screw in the box to ground the box, but it would be easier to just stick with a plastic box so you don't have to worry about grounding the box.

No connection wires are included, you don't need any. You plug a 4-pin molex from the 1st power supply and 24 pin molex is for 2nd. When you turn the 1st power supply on it automatically turns on the 2nd.

You need a existing system. It has NC (normally closed) NO (normally open) input/output contacts you have to wire to your security system.

I had no issues with a two wire install. I grounded it locally to the outlet gang box

To my surprise, the switch did not have a ground connection. I'm guessing that it's not required because there are no exposed connections (it attaches with wires and wire nuts), and that the construction is double insulated.

do NOT wire direct from the alarm - run the horn wires from the alarm to a relay and then run power from a permanently powered 12v circuit on the car9like the one that is powering the alarm, through a 10a fuse to the relay main input and then out to the horn +, and then run a wire from the horn - to the screw where you mount the horn to the vehicle (assuming it is negative ground like virtually all post 1950 cars)

There might have been one but for what I was using it I did not need one All you need to know is that you need a ground circuit to either of small terminals and ignition to the other small terminal and for either large terminal one to battery side usually an 8 gage cable and the other side to a starter or whatever you need to apply 12 volts to or if you need a 24 volt system you need a 24 volt relay This is usually used for a dual battery system also

You have to run wiring into the thermostat control box at the end of the armored cable, which is similar to a typical metal electrical "single gang" box.

You just wire it to the terminals in the control panel that lead to your other alarm. There is enough current to drive all alarms

Just because this unit didn't come with a ground wire dose not mean you can't make one. Find a metal area on the frame of the unit-there should be a screw there somewhere to connect a wire and connect the other end to a metal area on the receiver-there should be a screw there also. I really hope this works for you-good luck.

We use 22ga stranded alarm wire. It is very small and easy to solder and hide. I suggest that you tin both the end of the strip and the wire with a small dot of solder so you don't have to hold the heat on the strip long to connect them. I found that a low wattage pencil iron works the best. No you do not need to tape the unconnected end of the strip.

U will be fine. I had two wires and connected them accordingly. I left the middle screw unattached. Mine is connected to security system box. All works just fine.

It definitely makes provision for grounding per electrical code. Mine had the typical uninsulated braided wire that you run through the chain to your box for grounding.

You don't need any, the panels should come with the connectors sufficient to wire them in series or parallel. If the panels don't come with connectors, buy better panels. The only time you'll need connectors is if your array needs additional wire to get a run to a junction box. Once the array is connected, anything past that is going to be or should be heavier gauge wire unless the run is very short and the voltage is high (series connected array).

There is a 3 prong plastic connector that is included in the box. In my situation I didn't have to use it as I was replacing an existing detector using the same connector.

Yes, please follow the How To Guide come with the package. You have to connect the wires included with the package to the ground port of an outlet. Before doing it, you have to assure your outlet is grounded by using the included outlet checker.

There is no ground wire connection but I just unscrewed one of the cover screws to connect the ground screw, hum problem gone.
