Installation Cables / Page 6 Dec Fire, smoke density and gas tests requirements IEC :  Test on one single cable IEC Cat. C:  Test on one bundle of cables IEC 61034:  Measuring the smoke density under the defined conditions IEC 60754:  Measuring the halogen gases during the combustion of plastic

Installation Cables / Page 7 Dec IEC fire test fire propagation  A gas burner is held against the cable for 1 minute continuously.  After 1 minute the gas burner is switched off. The cable must extinguish on its own. The burnt zone must not exceed 425 mm.  Simple test  PVC and LS0H pass this test

Installation Cables / Page 8 Dec IEC c fire test on bundles of cables fire propagation  Complete fire test. Carried out in a special fire chamber.  Approx. 100 pieces of cables required.  Fire duration 20 min. The flames must only spread on a height of 2.5m.  FR (Fire Retardant) cables have special additives.  Only LSFR0H pass this test.

Installation Cables / Page 9 Dec IEC smoke density test  Measuring the smoke density to assure escaping routes visibility during fire  PVC produces thick, black smoke (visibility ~ 10%). Test fails  Smoke doesn’t allow visibility of safety exits  Problematical in the cabling in air shafts.  LS (Low Smoke) cables produce less smoke (visibility ~ 90%). Test passes  Safety signs are visible.  People can be localized and rescued.

Installation Cables / Page 10 Dec IEC measuring halogen content of gases Measuring the quantity of halogen content produced during the combustion of materials of the cables  Halogen gases corrosiveness has double negative effects on: Human – intoxicate people causing death before fire Equipment – water used during fire extinguishing will contain chlorine which is highly corrosive for electronics  PVC contains elements which release halogen gas during combustion or carbonization  0H (Zero Halogen) cables produce no halogen gases.
