CCTV and security system power supply installation across Kent, London and the South East. Reliable, protected power for cameras and alarms.
CCTV cameras, access control systems and intruder alarms need reliable, protected power supplies to operate effectively. DCC Electrics installs and upgrades power supplies for security systems across Kent and the South East.
We ensure every security device has a dedicated, RCD-protected circuit with battery backup where required, and that all work complies with relevant safety standards.
A security system is only as reliable as its power supply. A camera that loses power during a break-in is useless. An alarm that fails during a power cut provides no protection. We design security power systems that are robust, protected, and backed up to ensure continuous operation even during grid failures.
Our security power installations include dedicated circuits for CCTV systems, uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) for critical components, battery backup for access control, and surge protection to prevent damage from voltage spikes. We also integrate security power with lighting systems so that motion-activated lights improve camera footage quality at night.
For large commercial security networks, we design centralised power distribution systems that feed multiple cameras and devices from a single protected source. This simplifies maintenance, improves reliability, and makes fault-finding easier than managing multiple individual power supplies.

We test every circuit, verify UPS switchover and battery runtime, and confirm surge protection function. Full certification and runtime documentation are provided.
Expert Knowledge
Separate electrical circuits that power all CCTV cameras, recorders, and monitors. Isolation from general loads prevents nuisance tripping and ensures cameras stay operational.
Uninterruptible power supplies and battery banks that keep security systems running during power outages. Runtime calculations ensure backup lasts long enough for grid restoration or generator start.
Protected power for door controllers, card readers, electric locks, and intercoms. Battery backup ensures doors remain secure and accessible during power failures.
Upgraded power supplies for intruder alarms with battery backup, anti-tamper enclosures, and proper earthing. Ensures alarms remain active and responsive 24/7.
SPD-protected circuits that prevent lightning and switching transients from damaging cameras, recorders, and control equipment. Essential for outdoor camera networks.
Power circuits for motion-activated security lighting linked to CCTV systems. Lights trigger on camera motion detection, improving night-time image quality and deterrence.
The DCC Difference
Dedicated, protected power ensures your cameras, alarms, and access control never lose power at critical moments. Continuous protection you can depend on.
UPS and battery backup keep security systems operational during outages. Your property stays protected even when the grid goes down.
Dedicated circuits make it easy to identify and isolate power faults. When a camera or alarm fails, you know exactly which circuit to check.
SPD-protected circuits safeguard expensive security equipment from voltage spikes. Cameras, recorders, and controllers are protected from costly damage.
Properly installed, certified security power supports insurance requirements and claims. We provide the documentation your insurer needs.
We integrate security power with lighting, BMS, and fire safety systems for coordinated responses. Motion lights trigger cameras, alarms notify building management, and everything works together.
Our NICEIC-registered electricians are ready to help. We offer free, no-obligation quotes and fast response times across Kent and the South East. Whether you need advice, a site survey, or immediate work, we are here to get it done safely and professionally.

Ideally, yes. A dedicated circuit ensures the CCTV system is not affected by other loads tripping and makes fault finding easier. We recommend this for all commercial installations.
