The scope of IEC65 changed somewhat as it progressed from the 5th edition to
the 6th edition.  The 5th covered mains operated household equipment whereas
the 6th edition covers audio, video and similar equipment.

Mentioned in the list of examples of equipment within the scope of IEC65 are
"video cameras and video monitors".

I think, though, that IEC65 is intended to cover "entertainment/educational"
type video equipment and not permanently installed CCTV surveillance video
equipment.  My feeling is that IEC950 would be a more suitable standard to
work to.
