Firewall (Cable)
Tested for Propagation of fire up to two hours by National Test House.
- ASTME 119/ BS 476 (As per Pt. 20 and 24)
- IS: 162:1950
Even the smallest of fires from a short circuit or external source can easily cause an enormous loss to property and life. Electrical cables are a natural pathway for a fire to spread rapidly. With Fire Security cable coatings applied the possibility of a fire spreading through the cable routing is eliminated. Firewall offers spread of fire up to two hours which is more than sufficient time to get help.
