Slightly off-topic.
Recently bought a new home, the company that installed network and burglary alarm seems to have cut every corner imaginable:
We paid for 5 extra CAT6 drops. They forgot, and came back to install, in the wrong location. They moved them, I checked the cable, not CAT6. They came back and replaced. Now the other end of the cables were in the wrong location. Etc. etc. I think they have been back 10 times to fix their ****.
Had to move an outlet the other day and noticed they used Cat5 keystones. So they will be back again.
But.. My reason for posting this, I recently replaced an keypad for our alarm system and managed to mess up the programming and had to reset and reprogram the panel. By doing that, I figured out they did not use EOL resistors in all but one zone. For that one zone they added it in the alarm panel.
So my question, obviously one should use EOL resistors. But is there any (US) code requiring it (at the remote end....)?
