Question now, as you might expect, is how does one get round this as
the cable has to be cut and extended so that it can re re-routed?

Turn the alarm off before you do it, FFS!


If you had read the OP correctly, you would have learned that the
battery was disconnected and that the sounder was getting power from
a capacitor. The capacitor is there to provide power if some one cuts
the wires or otherwise tampers with the system. Tell you what,come
round and put your fingers on the contacts of the capacitor and you
soon learn what it does.
