The product, in the report: 4 Camera Kit with Alarm System
The consumer purchased the kit from different retailers to go with security cameras (Model # PRO 752). The consumer installed the kit at his new house that is being built.
The consumer stated that he installed the cameras with the wiring that came in the kit. The consumer had a home inspection conducted. The electrical inspector stated that the wiring does not pass code and that he cannot have that particular wiring for in wall use.
The consumer was informed that he can contact the manf and get a letter from them stating that the wiring is approved for in wall use. The consumer contacted the manf and they informed him that the wiring is not approved for in wall use. He would have to purchase in wall wiring for that.
The consumer stated that the packaging shows outdoor installation and then does not come with appropriate/approved wiring to be able to do the installation while meeting the code.
The consumer stated that the intent of the camera is to be mounted on the exterior. There are directions inside the kit stating that the wiring cannot be used in sunlight or rain.
The consumer was informed by the company that he would have to put the wiring in a conduit if he would want to use it outdoors. If he wants to use it indoors, he cannot have the wiring hidden in wall.
The consumer stated that the packaging or direction does not instruct the user of all this. The consumer can only find that out by calling the company. The company only offers options to make new purchases.
The caller stated that all of the wirings the manf sells in the kits cannot be used the way they are depicting on the pictures. The manf fails to put proper warning and instructions on the packaging or manual.
