Residential alarm wiring
 
Looking for infomation on wiring magnetic switches on window and door
jams. I have one wire with a red and a green running from my alarm
pannel past two windows and one double sliding door. The switches
have two wires comming off of them.

The switches are secured, I am not sure how to hook the wires to the
switches or the pannel.

Home alarms of this type just use a simple series loop with the
switches, window wire, etc in series. There can be seperate zones for
each loop. So, if you're adding to an existing loop, just wire them
up in series to the existing loop.
