I don't know how 7 core can use for all gate, bell and light. Unless the light control are build on the autogate controller.

From my calculation you need 11 cores:-

Power = 3 Cores (L,N, & E)
Autogate Switch = 4 Cores (for 2 switch), some use 3 cores
Bell = 2 Cores
Light = 2 Cores

So you use up all 11, maybe 10
*
the minimum as below:

Power = 2 Cores (L,N)
the steel wire inside the 1st pvc skin = (E)

from WIKI: Armour: Steel wire armour provides mechanical protection, which means the cable can withstand higher stresses, be buried directly and used in external or underground projects.[4] The armouring is normally connected to earth and can also be used as the circuit protective conductor ("earth wire") for the equipment supplied by cable.

Autogate Switch = 3 Cores (for 2 switch)
Bell = 2 Cores
Light = 1 Cores (L only, N & E share with auto gate power)
total 8 cores


for 7 cores, the auto gate the lights on/ off control by the auto gate control panel.

7 cores = +- rm9.50/M
11 cores =+-rm15/M

go for 11 cores so that can have some spare, the cable wont cost much for link house 10m is more than enough whistling.gif
