I tested this with an electrical socket reader and it chimed, so there is some power to it still. I’d like to remove this, the old keypad, a siren, etc.
Besides shutting off the power while doing it and maybe capping the cable ends, what do I need to think about? I’m just trying to make sure I don’t burn my house down 😅
I will never forget this joke told to me by an old shop master.
What do you call an electrician that does a carpenters job?
A bad carpenter.
What do you call a carpenter that does an electricians job?
Dead.
When it comes to electricity I think any rule discouraging calling a professional would be irresponsible and dangerous. DIY advice can absolutely include info on how to hire and ensure you get a good honest deal from a contractor IMO.
