Flame-retardant cable refers to the cable that under specified test conditions, the sample is burned, and after the test fire source is removed, the flame spreads only within a limited range, and the residual flame or residual burn can extinguish itself within a limited time.

What are the characteristics of flame retardant cable?

The basic characteristic of flame retardant cable is that it may be burned out and not run in the case of fire, but it can prevent the spread of fire. Generally speaking, in case of fire, the wire can limit the combustion to a local scope, do not spread, keep other various equipment, and avoid causing greater losses.

Birth background

In recent years, with the continuous acceleration of economic construction, a variety of large-scale industrial facilities, high-rise commercial buildings, underground buildings and the number of residential buildings gradually increased, the total use of cables is becoming more and more large, in addition to the intensity of building laying is also getting higher and higher.




At present, electrical fire accidents caused by short circuit and spontaneous combustion caused by cable aging are becoming more and more frequent, and the losses caused are becoming more and more serious, which makes people realize that in addition to enhancing fire safety awareness, strict relevant standards should also be formulated, and the use of flame retardant cables should be vigorously promoted to manufacture various types of fire retardant cables.

Precautions for use

1 In the same channel, it is not appropriate to configure non-flammable cables and non-flammable cables in parallel.

2 In the following places or circuits that need to be energized for a certain time under the external fire action, the exposed cables should be fire-resistant or fire-resistant cables should be selected.

3 When the number of cables is small, fireproof paint, tape can be added to the cable or the cable through the fire tube.

4 If there are many cables in the same channel, it is appropriate to lay them in a fire-resistant tank box, and the power cable should be ventilated. It can be semi-closed in an environment without flammable dust, and the fire-retardant bag can also be used when the cable protection section laid on the bridge is not long.

With the rapid development of China's wire and cable industry, people's safety requirements have been improved, and the awareness of fire and flame retardant has been enhanced, making the overall technical level of the fire and flame retardant cable industry greatly improved.

The choice of cables by the majority of users in wiring is related to the fast, convenient and safe future data transmission, and also provides a strong guarantee for the safety of life and property.

Only high quality can be recognized by customers to a higher degree, high quality and good reputation is the real value of the brand, is the foundation of the survival of brand enterprises. The rise of fire-retardant cables in China is not an unrealistic fantasy, but the call of the integrated wiring market.

The future fire-retardant cable manufacturing enterprises are not only limited to the simple product provision at this stage, but also will continue to extend the product chain at the same time, strengthen the service concept, provide users with full-line compatible products, and provide full technical support and services for the correct and reasonable use of products, which will become the market development trend of the fire-retardant cable wiring industry.
