A "fire cable," sometimes referred to as a fire-rated or fire-resistant cable, is made to continue working in the event of a fire. In systems where preserving power, communication, or control in an emergency is crucial, these cables are indispensable. Key information regarding fire cables is as follows:
- High-Performance Fire-Resistant Cables
- Halogen Free
- Flame Retardant and Low Smoke
- Certified by LPCB
- Very flexible construction that makes the installation easier in all conditions.
- Cable is fully screened, and conductors are twisted to protect against electrostatic noise
- Moisture Resistant
- Manufactured as per BS 7269-1:2015,BS 6387:2013 (Category CWZ), EN 50200:2015 (Class PH120), EN 50200:2015 Annex E (30 min), BS 5839-1:2013 (Clause 26.2d Standard), EN 60754-2:2014, EN 60332-3-22:2009
- Typical Applications: -
- BS 5839-1/8/9-Fire detection and fire alarm systems for buildings
- BS 5266-1-Emergency lighting
- BS8519- Selection and installation of fire-resistant power and control cable systems for life safety and fire-fighting applications.
