Fire Resistant Cables are critical components of electrical safety systems in modern buildings and critical facilities. Their main function is to maintain circuit integrity and continue transmitting power or signals during a fire, ensuring the operation of fire alarms, emergency lighting, and life safety systems.

What Are Fire Resistant Cables?

Fire Resistant Cables are specially designed cables that can withstand extremely high temperatures and maintain electrical continuity for a specified period during a fire. They are manufactured using special insulation materials such as mica tape or fire-resistant compounds and are tested according to international safety standards.

Importance of Fire Resistant Cables.

1. Ensure continuous operation of emergency systems during fire incidents.

2. Enhance overall building safety.

3. Reduce risk to human life and property.

4. Comply with fire safety regulations and standards.

Key Features of High-Quality Fire Resistant Cables.

• Ability to withstand temperatures up to 750–950°C.

• Maintain circuit integrity for defined durations (30, 60, or 120 minutes).

• Flame-retardant properties.

• Can be combined with LSZH features for low smoke and zero halogen emission.

• Compliance with international standards.

Applications of Fire Resistant Cables.

• Fire alarm systems.

• Emergency lighting and power supplies.

• Voice evacuation systems.

• Hospitals and airports.

• Shopping malls, hotels, and high-rise buildings.

How to Choose the Right Fire Resistant Cable.

When selecting a fire resistant cable, consider:

• Required circuit integrity duration during fire.

• Application type (power, control, alarm).

• Operating voltage and number of cores.

• Fire and smoke performance requirements.

• Compliance with certified standards.
