Guest RobE Posted September 2, 2017 Report Share Posted September 2, 2017 Hi, My Ei 151TL alarm required replacing as the 10 year date came to an end. I bought the alternative alarm as the Ei 151TL is no longer avaliable. I can see the new alarm Ei161e the wires have to be disconnected from the plug socket and re-wired directly into the alarm base. The four wires currently coming though the celing are live, battery, interconnect & neutral. My only question is what do i do with the battery wire for the new alarm Ei161e? As the Ei161e only has live, interconnect & neutral. Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Safelincs Posted February 19, 2018 Report Share Posted February 19, 2018 Hi Nathan The two blue were the following: -neutral -battery The two blue wires are joined together and become the neutral. Harry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Kam Posted December 7, 2018 Report Share Posted December 7, 2018 So what your saying is both blue wires go into the neutral on the base? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Bema Posted October 24, 2022 Report Share Posted October 24, 2022 Yup...two blues in one terminal works. Same question / doubts - thanks for the answer / assurance. AICO should consider providing this info as they are selling this as a replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
