Installation of electric blinds and
curtains should be simple, given enough planning and thought. Generally
we would recommend every window in a new build or renovation be wired
with 4-core 0.75 flex cable exiting at a standard back-box to close to
the upper right hand corner of the window to allow connection for blinds
that sit 'outside-reveal'.
For blinds that are located inside the reveal
the cable should be looped back out of the back-box through the plaster
to exit at the top right-hand corner of the window. This will allow the
cable to be hidden behind the blind.
We also recommend a CAT5 cable be routed
from a standard back-box in each room back to the control room.
Any unused cables can be blanked off with
a blanking plate over the back-box allowing for future expansion.

| All cables should be
run back to a central location (usually a control room or garage
etc) where the control system will be located. This will vary in
size depending on the complexity of the installation. |
