Honeywell LT-CABLE Frequently Asked Questions
What Are The Wiring Recommendations For an Alarm system?
For alarm systems 18-gauge wire is the most popular size. Whether using 2 or 4 conductors, 18-gauge wire is recommended. Join us as we discuss alarm wiring.
How is AC Power Provided to a Security System?
A security system receives AC power from a plug-in transformer. You must run a wire from the transformer to the panel to provide AC power. Learn to power a security system.
How Do I Power On the 2GIG GC2e?
Powering on the 2GIG GC2e is one of the first things you will do when setting up the system. This can be done without opening the panel. Learn how to power the GC2e.
How Do I Connect a 2GIG Alarm System Transformer?
The 2GIG Systems use DC power. You must follow polarity when connecting the wire from the transformer to the panel. Learn how to connect a 2GIG system with its its transformer.
What is an LT-Cable?
A Honeywell LT-Cable is a power cable that makes it easier for a user to connect their system to its plug-in transformer for reliable power. Learn about the Honeywell LT-Cable.
Can I Use an LT-Cable w/ a Qolsys IQ Panel 2 Alarm System?
The IQ Panel 2 comes with a cable for powering the system. However, it is also possible to use a Honeywell LT-Cable or any standard 18-gauge 2-conductor wire to power the system. The wire will connect the system to a 5.5V DC plug-in transformer. Learn more about the IQ Panel 2 and the LT-Cable.
How Do I Get Power to an Interlogix Simon XTi or XTi-5?
An Interlogix XTi or XTi-5 receives its power from an 18-gauge 2-conductor wire. The wire connects the system and its plug-in 9-volt AC transformer. A Honeywell LT-Cable can also be used to make the wiring process somewhat easier. Learn more about powering an Interlogix Simon XTi or XTi-5.
Can I Use an LT-Cable w/ an Interlogix Simon XT Alarm System?
Using a Honeywell LT-Cable can make it easier to get power to a Simon XT System. The cable will eliminate the need to strip any wires, and it will work just as effectively as a traditional 18-gauge 2-conductor wire. Learn more about wiring an Interlogix Simon XT using a Honeywell LT-Cable.
Can I Use an LT-Cable w/ an Interlogix Simon XTi or XTi-5 Alarm System?
The LT-Cable can certaintly be used with an Interlogix Simon XTi or XTi-5 in place of a standard 18-gauge 2-conductor wire. By using an LT-Cable, it is easier to get power to the alarm system. The LT-Cable is available for purchase on our website. Learn more about the Honeywell LT-Cable.
What Kind of Wire Do I Need to Use to Install an Interlogix Simon XTi or XTi-5?
The best wire to use when installing an Interlogix Simon XTi or XTi-5 System is an 18-gauge 2-conductor wire. To prevent the need for wire-stripping, a Honeywell LT-Cable can be used. This cable makes it even easier to install these systems. Learn more about wiring a Simon XTi or XTi-5 System.
