Fire alarm panel supply

Apostolos
Good morning.

I have a question that may sound silly so excuse my ignorance in advance

I have a Fire Alarm Panel

This is going to be fed through FP200.

However the installation of the FP200 would need an RCD because it is chased within a stud wall less than 50mm from the surface.

Can I omit the RCD on the grounds that it is a critical system for the safety of people?

Is there anything like that in BS7671?

It seems really counter intuitive to use an RCD on a Fire Alarm Panel...

Thanks

    I use a 3c2.5mm2 FP200 so my CPC is internal
