Even though the LVD doesn't apply, if you apply EN 60950 that would be a
demonstration of due diligence as far as the GPSD is concerned.

EN 60950 applies since it's a *security* camera, and the relevant
CENELEC product committee chose that standard. But a camera for other
purposes in a household context should meet EN 60065.
