Over the next week or so I'm rewiring my upstairs lighting. I'm a qualified electrician. The upstairs lighting is fed by 1.0mm t+e so I'm doing it in 1.5mm. I was also planning on throwing another 1.5 up for the burglar alarm. Currently the burglar alarm is fed off the upstairs lighting so itll be on it's own circuit on a 6A RCBO
But in the future I plan on installing a home cctv system. One with four cameras and a DVR. Il have it all running in the loft. Would I get away with adding this to the burglar alarm or will 6A be too small and 1.5 be too small? I cant see any wattages for these kits anywhere. Or should I make the burglar alarm circuit 2.5 and stick it on a 16A? I have a spare 6A RCBO as the board come with so many and I had one left over so would be cheaper and easier to do it all in 1.5 if possible
