Fire Resistant Armoured Power Cable Application
Fire performance cables ensure circuit integrity during fires, e.g. emergency services, alarm systems, lighting, etc., and in situations where power must be maintained to allow controlled closedown of equipment. These cables are designed for easy installation, whether clipped to a surface, placed in trays, baskets, or in open air. They feature fire-resistant and low-fire-hazard properties, allowing for direct installation in the ground, ducts in well-draining soil, or embedded in concrete.
