Friends:

I have many clients with remote power houses. One in particular has a conduit between the power house and his residence with two spare 16 AWG conductors. My brainstorm is to install a garden variety residential smoke detector in his power house and a second one in his residence, interconnected with the two spare conductors. The hope is: an alarm in the power house will trigger an alert on the smoke detector in the residence.

This is slightly at variance with the wiring diagram that accompanies the smoke detectors. I am about ready to prototype this in my shop, but I thought I'd ask if anyone else has done this? It seems like a great idea...

Thanks in advance.
