Prysmian FP600 and FP600S fire resistant power cable
FP600 and FP600S, Prysmian’s enhanced performance fire resistant power cables, have been certified by the Loss Prevention Certification Board (LPCB) for compliance with BS 7346-6:2005.
Both cables, already certified to British Standard 7346-6, and rigorously tested in Prysmian’s own state of the art fire testing facilities, now have the extra endorsement of independent third party accreditation from the LPCB. The test involves direct mechanical impact and water jet application under fire conditions and both cables achieved the maximum 120-minute rating.
Both cables, designed specifically to meet the more onerous fire survival requirements now being requested by regulators and specifiers for fire fighting and life safety applications, have unique attributes, making them superior to other cables currently on the market. FP600, intended for cable cross sections up to 70 mm2, has a superior mechanical protection provided by an interlocking steel tape armour that is maintained to an exceptionally high level under fire conditions. FP600S is designed for cross sections above 70 mm2 and has a galvanized steel wire armour.
