BS 7629-1 Multicore cables–Standard
BS 7629-1 Electric cables - Specification for 300/500 V fire resistant screened cables having low emission of smoke and corrosive gases when affected by fire. Part 1: Multicore cables
BS 7629-1 Multicore cables–Scope
This British Standard specifies requirements and test methods for the construction and performance of cables which:
• have a thermosetting insulation of rated voltage 300/500 V;
• provide resistance to fire (circuit integrity), including with mechanical shock and with water, as measured by performance in a standard test or tests;
• emit limited amounts of smoke and corrosive gases as measured by standard tests;
• are primarily intended for use in emergency lighting, fire detection and fire alarm system circuits.
