Wire - We stock a large selection of standard and solid grade wire. Of the two types of wire, stranded is the more commonly used, but both work just as well. Our most popular wire type is 22/2 and 22/4 stranded, jacketed wire. 22 stands for the wire gauge, or size. The higher the number, the thinner the wire. Different gauges are for different uses - 18 gauge solid red wire meets most building code for smoke/heat detectors. The number of conductors in each wire is indicated with the gauge, after the "/" (i.e., 22/2 means 22 gauge, 2 conductors). 2 conductor wire is usually used for magnetic contacts on doors and windows. 4 conductor wire is usually used on keypads, motion detectors and glassbreak detectors. You can use 2 conductor wire on these devices but be sure to double it up. The only problem with doubling up the wire is that you will have two sets of similar colored wire. Most of the better installation companies use 4 conductors throughout the house, so if they break a wire for a magnetic contact, they will have another wire available to them.
