Fire Alarm Circuit

Is there anything in the code that requires a dedicated cicuit? We usually give a dedicated circuit, however we do this as a precaution and a safety measure so that it won't trip.

No, this is a design issue.

I don't have access to my fire codes today, but I bet it is a requirement of various fire codes.

NFPA 72 1-5.2.5.2 requires a dedicated circuit when light and power sources are used to provide primary power.
