Friedland Power Kit Wiring

[Nesian21]

Hi,

I'm just looking to install the power kit but I'm not too sure where to put the wires with the current layout. Could you please advise.

Hi Nesian21

This How-To video should help with the installation process. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GMogHU9MyPI

Do you have an install guide for the chime?

If not, a model number might help.

No install guide for the doorbell, it's circa 1970's

It is however a Friedland 454

FWIW, after googling it, I don't think it's compatible.  It apparently uses a 6 volt transformer (or batteries).  So check the ratings on your transformer.

But I think the power kit needs to be wired across 1 and 3 for the front doorbell (2 and 3 for the rear).  That is based on this: https://diy.stackexchange.com/questions/196032/confused-about-strange-wiring-to-friedland-no-454-doo...

Cheers for that. I think you could be right. Will have to investigate further into a transformer.

Much appreciated.
