Cheat Sheet: Low Smoke Zero Halogen Cables
Note: LSZH cables are generally flame retardant to IEC 60332 (just as PVC compounds mostly are) but this does not offer circuit
Cables are required to be flame retardant in accordance with BS EN 60332-1-2, or installed within containment having the necessary resistance to flame propagation, to the relevant standards identified in Regulation 527. 5, typically metallic containment. and acid gas test (BS EN/ IEC 60754-1/2). Unlike PVC cables which produce vast amounts of dense black smoke, toxic fumes and acid gas when exposed to fire, LSZH cables produce very low levels ials' flame retardants begin to decompose. Therefore, understanding the application objectives of these two cable types will help optimize costs and operational. BE offers Low Voltage Fire Resistant Cables, in accordance with International (IEC) and Bri...
