While a "Battery Fault" is a common issue, you should not attempt to replace the main panel battery yourself. Intruder alarm panels are connected directly to your home’s mains electricity. Attempting a DIY fix poses several serious risks:
Risk of Electric Shock: The control panel contains 240V mains power. Touching the internal transformer or exposed terminals can result in a lethal electric shock.
Fire Hazard: If the battery leads are accidentally short-circuited or reversed, it can cause sparks, intense heat, or a fire within the control unit.
Tamper Lockouts: Opening the panel triggers a "Tamper Alarm." Without an Engineer Code, you may be unable to silence the external siren, causing a major noise nuisance.
Insurance Compliance: Most insurance providers require alarm systems to be maintained by qualified professionals to remain valid.
Don't take the risk with electricity. Let our expert engineers handle the replacement safely and ensure your system is fully functional.
