Easy to install using a 3 wire connection (Live, Neutral and Interconnect/Control) as standard smoke/heat alarm wiring The Ei1529RC is used to control all the alarms in a system from one place. We highly recommend fitting a control switch if you have smoke, heat and carbon monoxide alarms on the same system as it’s essential that you can tell which alarm has sounded. From then you can identify which danger is present and the action you should take.

Wall mounted for ease of use can be fixed with surface mount box supplied, or will fit a standard recessed box (not supplied). All alarms on the system will sound. This is the equivalent of pressing the test button on each individual alarm
