Friedland Stockport Doorbell Manual
Hi Been in our new house since October last year, the whole house was gutted and re-wired before we bought it, but the telephone and bell wiring seem a bit dodgy. I have opened up the bell box and the attached shows what cable I have. There are two cables each with 3 twisted pairs (green/white, orange/white, blue white). I have not wired in any of the cables myself, I presume I need to make a connection to the bottom r/h screw (#2 as all the other are terminated). I striped the sheath of the green/white wires at the top, if they touch its make a circuit and the bell rings (even when the button is not pressed out side), so I presume I dont want to be terminating this cable. As you can guess I aint an electrician. From my old GSCE physics I think that pressing the bell button outside completes the circuit but don't know where to begin.

Also where is the power coming from for this, not the mains - the telephone system??? As its happens everyroom has a telephone socket, tried wiring these in to master socket and they are still dead. I need to do some classes on wiring. Don't know what all those wires are. That is a battery powered door bell. It takes what looks like 4 C size cells. All you need then is two wires coming from the bell push which makes the circuit.
Basically there is a electro-magnet in the middle - when you push the button, it completes the circuit and the magnet pulls the striker onto one of the chimes and it makes a noise (DING). When the button is released the striker is pulled back by a spring and hits the other striker and makes a noise (DONG). Just remove the wires, put some batteries in and with a bit of wire experiment connecting two of the terminals together (there are only 6 possible combinations so it won't take long) and when you find a combination which makes the DING-DONG noise you'll know which to connect the bell push too.

It might be that you have a transformer somewhere and two of the wires are to provide power from that to the bell unit instead of using batteries. Cheers, Nigel.

Click to expand.Those instructions look about right - I my just change it to battery operation. One thing is bugging me.
We are sure the bell worked when we first moved in. Then one day it stopped working. First thing I checked were batteries, there wasn't any to replace, so it must have always been mains powered. The only other wiring I have played about with is the telephone wires, trying to get all the other phone sockets LIVE. The cables are similar (same?) could it be that when wiring up the house the same cable runs are being used/mixed up?
Click to expand.you up early as well - I did read your post, but got side tracked with other options. I have just checked the fuse box, coming out is a large bundle of grey cables (POWER), and one seperate white cable which goes up into a hole under the stairs. I can only presume this is the cable, I can not see a transformer so haven't a clue what wires are terminated. Since then I have tried other options, I have tried the battery to to help identify the bell/buttons work.
Even this simple wiring has baffled me Tried these combos in 1 and 2 of the bell box (as per linked PDF) Cable 1 Blue and Green nothing Green and Orange nothing Blue and Orange noise off the bell, sparks when connecting Cable 2 Blue and Green nothing Blue and Organge nothing Green and Orange nothing? EDIT - can you look at the pic I added on post 2. This looks like you suggest and was how I discovered it, may be something has broken, i.e.
