aluncob Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Does anybody know where to get some information about legislation and standards to meet for CCTV/Security System Installers?I know that there are specific standards for Alarm Units, Services and Systems provided by UL (http://www.ul.com/) but I'm not US citizen and I would like to know a bit more about how things work there.If anyone could put some light on this issue, I'd really appreciate it.Thanks!

dave@damar.net Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 Howdy:- I do not work in the United States market but I am close to a number of people who do. In the U.S. security services generally are regulated by each individual state. Some states are wide open - no requirement for licensing or training - other states require licenses, training and formal exams. Are you interested in any particular state, if so please let me know and I can likely give some guidance where you should look for more information. Just a comment about UL - from a security point of view they establish "Standards" but in actual fact standards by themselves do not have the force of law. However, when a standard in referenced in a code or regulation, then because of the reference they are enforceable. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dylan1055 Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 I was licensed as an Investigator in 3 states and installed overt and covert cctv they all required different licenses permits and federal registration. most importantly however you needed to have a low voltage elec license for anything including 12v cams. pm me for more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
