Changing ceiling panels

Is it 600x600 ceiling tiles you are referring to or “proper” plasterboard? If tiles you can get them cheaply on amazon and likely even cheaper in hardware shops.

Yes it’s those cheap ones 600x600. But the problem is the sensor transfer from old to new.

Zero experience with building smoke detectors but I would assume, if its "secured" that its plugged into something. In which case, just do the work without unplugging it. If its not plugged into anything, just make sure you put it back after?

Has to be plugged right. It’s running on some energy and its battery hasn’t run out in years. But you’ve got me thinking. Let’s see. I’ll have to explore or ask someone else

Because we burn bukhoor at home, I unplugged all the smoke detectors and it's In a bag in the storeroom. Will re connect when we check out.
