First and foremost I wouldn’t recommend you install any CCTV equipment in a petrol station as a DIY project, you really need to get the professionals in. By looking at the pictures it obvious you are not within the UK so I don’t know what rules and regulations would apply, however in the UK petrol stations are classified a hazardous areas for obvious reasons. Hazardous areas (from my knowledge of pharmaceutical research/production facilities) need to comply with far more stringent rules and regulations to minimise the risk of explosions; consequently specialised enclosures, cabling and glands need to be utilised. Standard CCTV equipment may not be suitable depending on where the equipment is located, so it would be best to seek specialist advice first. Safety first!
