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 😅

    Most security systems run on 12-24V DC, not full household 120V, so fire risk is minimal but you should still find and disconnect the control panel/transformer first since thats where the power originates.
