NF C32-070 Classification tests on cables - Brief 

Halogen Free Control Cable With Numbered Conductors, NF C32-070 C1 is a halogen free multi-conductor, flexible power and control cable designed for use in all electrical equipment in dry, damp and wet conditions. Recommended applications include machinery, data processing equipment, ventilation and air conditioning systems. In case of fire, no corrosive gases are produced. This cable is particularly suitable for use where human life and valuable property are exposed to an extremely high risk of fire. 

NF C32-070 Classification tests on cables - Requirement 

A vertically installed cable or a bundle of cable is exposed to the effects of a radiating over (approx.830) and forced ventilation. Pilot flames arranged above the over burn off the emitted gasses. The test duration is 30 minutes. The cable length is 1600mm.The classification according to destroy area. 

Then, they are submitted to the category C1 test of the NF C 32-070. Depending on the results (degraded length), they are classified in four classed A, B, C, D, 

Class

Requirement

A

B

C

D

No ignition and no degradation beyond the upper part of the furnace

Length of degradation beyond the upper part of the furnace does not exceed 50mm

Length of degradation beyond the upper part of the furnace does not exceed 300mm

Length of degradation does not exceed the top of the furnace
