Flame Retardant Cables and Fire Integrity in reference to Cables - what is the difference?
Flame Retardant refers to a cable’s ability to restrict the propagation of flames in the event of a fire. This is especially important where cables pass from one area to another within a building in order to slow down any spreading of the fire. This is tested by setting fire to a cable in a verticle chamber and measuring the extent to which the flame moves up the cable. There are different categories of loading (A, B or C) depending on the intended use of the cable. The purchaser can select the category appropriate to the required application.
Fire Integrity refers to the amount of times a cable can be exposed to a flame and continue to function. Typical applications of these types of cables are for use in fire alarms, and circuit systems.

Firecel SR 114E Enhanced Fire Cable PH120
Toggle
Eland Product Group: A6F
Application: Firecel SR 114E Fire Performance Cable is intended for use in fire detection and fire alarm systems, and emergency lighting circuits. Firecel 114E Enhanced cable is recommended for situations where fire cables may need to remain operating correctly for a longer period than is expected of a standard fire cable. For example, in buildings without sprinkler systems, which have a longer evacuation process due to the size, complexity or purpose of the building, or any building that has been assessed as requiring enhanced fire protection.
