I need some clarification... Are you considering running a 1mm cable directly to a 120v power source?? The alarm panel should wire to a low voltage transformer which would generally plug directly into a wall outlet, but you could probably find a direct wire transformer that could be wired into a junction box (make sure specs match requirments of panel). A low voltage wire would run between the transformer and the panel and needs no fuse.
