I have a large barn with lean-to. I would like to install a motion detector inside the barn and one also in the lean-to. I would like to have these two sensors feeding a special light fixture along with a loud 120v 6" bell. I know that I can use separate light fixtures but I only have one security bell.
They will both be powered from the same breaker circuit. My question is if I wire both sensors to the single light and bell, will the current running back into the other sensor from the activated sensor cause damage? Would I need to install diodes or other electrical device?
Safety is of great concern.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
