Hard wired smoke alarms

[diyhell]

Have bought 3 Kidde 240v smoke alarms from TLC and am planning to fit them onto their own radial from the consumer unit and interlink them.

Question is - can I simply run the 1mm straight to the first alarm from the MCB or should it go through a FCU. Instructions talk of putting them on a separate circuit if interlinked but nothing else.

Recommendations?

Simply, run them straight from a 6amp MCB. There should be nothing in between.

Ta - thought that must be the case but like to check
