Fire-resistant cables are used where maintaining circuit operation during a fire matters; the required performance must be checked carefully.
Some systems, such as specific circuits serving emergency equipment, require electrical operation to be maintained for a defined period under fire conditions. Cables for these uses must be selected according to the project's required performance level and test criteria.
Flame retardance, low-smoke characteristics and circuit integrity are not interchangeable terms; each describes a different property. Reviewing the technical datasheet and the project's applicable requirements is therefore essential.
Discuss the application and technical requirements with an electrical professional and the sales team when selecting a suitable product.
