im going to put in new smoke detectors, one down stairs landing and one up stairs, i thinking from a 6A mcb with 1.5 twin&e to 1st smoke then 3core to 2nd would that comply with the regs? also what detector would be recommended ? or dose that not matter
I'd go for what you say and possibly add a combined heat/smoke detector in kitchen link all 3 with 3core and earth. Grey core sleeved in blue to indicate neutral and black core for interlinking
If you have a spare way on CU put them on their own circuit

OK Breezer I see you arguement and I should read what I type a heat detector is recommended for kitchen when there is an opening to a hall or stariway.
Part B1 recommends interlinked mains with battery back up
It all states 'on own circuit or regularly used lighting circuit on non RCD of CU'
