Tennessee

The state of Tennessee requires a license for any installer who works with a burglar alarm or video surveillance system.

The state of Tennessee has the following types of licenses:

• Low Voltage license
• Low Voltage work (Less than 70 volts)
• Fire detection
• Alarm systems Contractors

You do not need to take an exam to do low voltage work (less than 70 volts), but you must register with the Tennessee Alarm Contractors Board.

Since the state requires separate licenses for installing burglar alarms and video surveillance, you need to specify which you need or apply for both licenses at once.

Companies must obtain an Alarm Systems Contractor Company license, and all employees must pass a background check.

Qualified agents must be licensed as an Alarm Qualifying Agent.
