Tested to international standards, these cables exhibit reduced evolution of smoke and of acid gases and reduced flame propagation, giving a significant contribution to fire safety. • Cables have harmonised core colours. • Can be laid direct (continually waterlogged ground needs caution), in ducts, in trays or clipped to surface. • Provides a solution for installations where there is a requirement for a surrounding earthed metallic covering.
